Energy Disputes
The political and economic volatility in the energy sector has resulted in complex, high-value disputes across a range of jurisdictions.
The increasing incidence of state intervention, coupled with increased competition for resources and stronger regulation has also contributed to a rise in contentious matters.
We have advised on many of the most high profile cases in this area, managing effectively and efficiently the many disputes where hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake, with significant volumes of documentation and complex, disputed facts.
We have an outstanding record of assisting our international clients in avoiding or resolving disputes through negotiation, mediation, international arbitration, litigation, expert determination and other forms of alternative dispute resolution.
In addition, the firm's international arbitration group is well-known and recommended by several law directories for it's track record regarding the advice of multinational companies in the field of energy disputes.
