We are representing businesses in
cross-border disputes, i.e. international commercial litigation and arbitration proceedings (incl. enforcement) as well 
as white collar crime matters.

  • Arbitration

    While most arbitrations revolve around commercial disputes, arbitration is also the dispute-resolution mechanism of choice for international investment as well as sports disputes.

  • Litigation

    We try domestic and international cases, both before national and international courts and tribunals. Our lawyers routinely handle complex commercial litigation matters across industries and jurisdictions.

  • Enforcement

    When it comes to enforcing judgments or arbitral awards, we identify assets, develop cross-border enforcement strategies, and coordinate legal work across multiple jurisdictions.

  • Strategic conflict mangement

    Early Case Evaluation can be instrumental in finding a quick and cost-efficient solution.

  • White collar crime

    We advise on all aspects of white collar crime and corporate criminal law, providing services of both legal prosecution and defense.
