Cross-border litigation
We support businesses and individuals in a wide range of complex and high-value cross-border disputes, including working offshore and across multiple jurisdictions.
Cross-border litigation can arise through international commerce, where clients work or trade across borders and a lawsuit needs to be managed in multiple countries and jurisdictions. We support our clients, both businesses and individuals, in international disputes and provide efficient, pragmatic advice, focused on achieving a commercial solution avoiding any interruption to trading or service, where possible.
We routinely advise clients in worldwide freezing injunction proceedings and can obtain worldwide freezing orders as well as defend against an order being made.
We also specialise in various international asset tracing and recovery matters and provide advice on and enforce judgments from overseas jurisdictions in the UK.
We frequently employ alternative dispute resolution, or international arbitration, which provides a private and practical way of resolving commercial disputes.
