About

Provided by Linklaters

Our Dispute Resolution practice specialises in a range of different types of matters, including in the fields of banking, capital markets (derivatives and structured products), tax, property and finance, competition and antitrust. We also represent clients in M&A disputes and insolvency-related litigation, as well as in professional negligence, commercial distribution and product liability cases.

We have also developed a particular expertise in fraud and white-collar crime cases, human rights related litigation, injunctions and regulatory investigations, as well as in energy, natural resources and infrastructure and construction cases.

We look to bring disputes to an early and successful conclusion through strategic and creative thinking, as well as analysis of the opponent’s negotiating weaknesses, procedural tactics or creative settlement approaches. We also have extensive experience of the issues and tactics in regulatory investigations.

Our lawyers are as familiar with arbitration as they are with litigating in court, and are experienced in settling disputes for clients in the way most suited to each matter, including mediation, adjudication and expert determination handling arbitrations involving international commercial contracts, post-acquisition claims, construction and banking liability.
