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

Our team present in London, Singapore and Hong Kong advise players in various commodity markets including oil and gas, grains and soft commodities, metals, coal and LNG.
When things go wrong, as they invariably do from time to time, our in depth experience enables us to provide urgent "fire fighting" advice and guidance and to assist you in seeking to achieve a positive, commercially acceptable outcome without the need for litigation or arbitration. However, when it is necessary to "go legal" we have a wealth of experience in handling complex cross border disputes and international arbitrations whether they be in relation to the underlying physical trades, derivative transactions, shipping and other logistic contracts, insurance or financing arrangements including letters of credit and performance guarantees.
On the transactional side we have represented clients, particularly in the mining and other resource-related sectors, in relation to a wide range of transactions, ranging from supply chain and logistics contracts to M&A transactions involving mining companies and their assets.
