Disputes (International & Cross-Border)

About

Provided by Baker McKenzie

Our team of nearly 200 US litigation attorneys has decades of experience in domestic and global disputes in a wide variety of substantive areas. Our primary differentiator from other firms is our cross-border dispute capability and our jury trial experience in complex commercial cases. In particular, we leverage our reputation as a "go-to" international firm—known for our best-in-class disputes practice—together with an unmatched global platform across 74 offices and 45 countries, to provide coordinated representation to US and foreign multinationals in high-stakes, cross-border disputes. As the global economy grows increasingly complex and contentious, these capabilities are of increased importance to businesses of all sizes. 

We possess a unique ability to represent foreign-owned major multinationals in disputes that involve litigation filed simultaneously in the US and abroad. This sophisticated work ranges from taking and enforcing foreign discovery of documents and witnesses and defeating jurisdiction of claims against foreign multinationals sued in the US where the operable conduct occurred overseas, to handling the complex interplay between pending matters that involve the competing application of foreign and US laws. We also help clients enforce US judgments abroad and foreign judgments in the US.
