Litigation & dispute resolution
Managing risk, setting strategy and leading on some of the world’s most complex, critical and novel cases.
Right now there are big rewards to play for in technology, life sciences, brand building and other dynamic fields — but only if you can deal with the risks and obstructions found in such litigious environments.
We are known for our work on some of the largest and most challenging commercial and contractual disputes for dynamic companies. Whilst our clients are market-leading organisations operating at the forefront of innovation and change in their industries, typically across borders. In addition to technical expertise and years of experience, we offer an in-depth knowledge and understanding of their industries. They trust us to handle their most complex, technical disputes and protect their highly valuable intellectual property rights.
We act for our clients in litigation at all levels of the English courts, in arbitration proceedings, as well as facilitating settlement discussions, mediation and early neutral evaluation. However, we also recognise the value to our clients of avoiding disputes altogether, and work with them to identify potential risks at an early stage and develop comprehensive risk mitigation and management solutions.
Case management
We offer a number of flexible case management options, using the latest advanced case management and reporting tools, e-discovery technologies and automation. Our investment in technology means that, even when we scale up, our lawyers remain accessible and knowledgeable.

We have strong relationships with leading foreign law firms and third party service providers, which allow us to provide the best expertise possible through the convenience of working with one firm.
