We work with organisations globally to deliver effective solutions to complex and high profile commercial disputes and contentious regulatory issues. Our work includes advice on all aspects of commercial and contractual litigation and disputes related to commercial agreements. We regularly advise on issues arising from M&A disputes, joint venture disputes, shareholder disputes and corporate control issues.
Our approach to dispute resolution is commercial and strategic. We align ourselves with clients' objectives and work closely with our client teams in executing an agreed strategy. We focus on the issues that matter, not just the process. We represent major global companies across a variety of sectors, including financial services, infrastructure, real estate, energy and technology, on their most significant disputes and investigations. Avoiding a dispute or preventing one escalating is often the objective and, to this end, our team is experienced in alternative dispute resolution, as well as acting in national courts or before specialist tribunals.
We understand clients need more than legal advice – we provide holistic solutions to navigate the complexities of conducting businesses globally, to help reduce risk and promote business performance and success. Our clients benefit from our global teams of legal, consulting and Ashurst Advance professionals who work together to deliver end-to-end solutions for complex risk and regulatory issues.
