Dispute resolution
Litigation is at the heart of our business and we know it inside out. At any one time, more than half our lawyers are handling complex, large-scale global disputes.
However, we always consider the possibility of commercial solutions through negotiation and mediation before going to court.KEY CONTACTS

Asia disputes
Vast, diverse and home to approximately two-thirds of the world's population, Asia features some of the largest markets in the world. With high levels of commercial activity, inevitably challenges and disputes arise.
We work with you to identify the approach that's right for your business. We are experienced in resolving disputes before national courts, in domestic and international arbitration tribunals, in mediation or expert determination, and through the provision of pragmatic and commercial advice in pre-litigation situations.
We service the entire Asia Pacific region through our hubs in Hong Kong and Singapore. Through time and experience, we have developed a strong network of trusted law firms in key jurisdictions. This enables us to resolve issues for our clients wherever they arise. We are attuned to the local markets and have the agility to match the best fit firm with the nature of the dispute. We stay close to matters. This approach - coupled with partnering with only the best local firms - ensures that our regional and global clients receive a seamless and high-quality service wherever they need it.
Our lawyers have helped to resolve multi-jurisdictional disputes across the region including those that have involved Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Macau, Mainland China, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. Our team also has experience in resolving disputes in a range of jurisdictions in the Middle East.
In arbitrations we regularly act in proceedings under the institutional rules of major international arbitration centres (including the HKIAC, SIAC, CIETAC, AIAC (formerly the KLRCA), LCIA and ICC), before trade associations (such as SICOM, FOSFA, GAFTA, LMAA and WIPO), and in ad hoc arbitrations (including under the UNCITRAL Rules). Our Asia Disputes team includes experienced and certified advocates, as well as experienced arbitrators on various institutions' arbitrator panels.
