International Dispute Resolution

Overview

As one of the world’s leading centers of international commerce, London serves as a global leader for the resolution of cross-border commercial and regulatory disputes. At Crowell & Moring U.K. LLP, our International Dispute Resolution (IDR) team provides effective, skilled representation on the full spectrum of business and governmental disputes worldwide. Drawing on our firsthand knowledge of international markets as well as local business and legal customs, cultures, and languages, we regularly help both public and private companies, not-for-profit organisations, and government entities resolve complex, high-stakes disputes across the globe.

Experience in courtrooms and dispute-resolution venues worldwide

Our London-based lawyers work closely with Crowell & Moring litigators and lawyers located in the firm’s Washington, D.C., New York, Doha, Brussels, and other offices to provide seamless, coordinated counsel on matters in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), the United States, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. Our lawyers are familiar with the legal, business, regulatory, and law-enforcement frameworks of the countries in which our clients do business. As necessary, we also draw on our network of top-tier local counsel to ensure that the appropriate resources and lawyers are assigned to client matters.

We have represented clients before arbitral panels and in settlement negotiations, courtrooms, administrative hearings before worldwide. Among other high-profile matters, we recently achieved a groundbreaking victory for our client, Dana UK Axle, that recognised our client’s commitment to manufacturing and delivering quality products.

Our IDR group advises clients with operations and interests in a broad range of industries, including:

  • Automotive manufacturing and components
  • Aviation
  • Construction
  • Energy
  • Entertainment and media
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Infrastructure
  • Finance
  • Technology
  • Telecommunications

We take a pragmatic approach to client matters, working as trusted advisors to assess the strength and weaknesses of their position and to identify strategies to avoid or minimize conflicts. When recourse to litigation or arbitration is necessary, we deliver assertive, sophisticated counsel at every step.
