International Litigation & Arbitration

In any case involving international disputes, it is crucial to seek legal advice as soon as possible. Sometimes alternative dispute resolution methods do not work, and the case ends up in court.

London Dispute Resolution & English Courts

London is one of the world’s leading centres for dispute resolution. It offers a range of dispute resolution mechanisms through the Courts, arbitration and mediation.

English courts recognise the benefits of mediation and other forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in helping parties to settle cases outside the court process. Even after litigation has commenced, there are a number of stages when the court can stay proceedings to enable the parties to mediate. Our expertise in the international field is reflected in the wide variety of clients for whom we act including traders and entrepreneurs. We never lose sight of the commercial realities, consequences, the pressures and priorities that our clients have to face every day.

We also handle disputes arising from commercial distribution and agency, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, shareholders agreements and corporate disputes. We are well versed in arbitration and related court proceedings, such as jurisdiction challenges, freezing orders and the enforcement of arbitral awards.

Spanish & EU Courts

Our strong dispute resolution team represent clients before Spanish domestic and EU courts (including the Supreme Court and the Court of Justice of the European Union), international and domestic arbitration. We coordinate proceedings in more than one jurisdiction.

We are frequently requested to appear before the courts to enforce English judgments and decisions in Spain. Enforcing a court decision before Spanish courts involve new proceedings requesting the reimbursement of a sum of money, the right to have an action carried out or not carried out, or that a recognised right be fulfilled by registration in the relevant public registry, depending on the order. After the Brexit transition period enforcement of judgments between the UK and EU member states will essentially be countries’ national laws including the “exequatur” court proceedings to obtain first a recognition and finally the enforcement of the judgement.

Our litigation lawyers provide advice and act at all stages of the litigation, including ordinary appeals against decisions by the first instance courts. We are specialists in the preparation of appeals before the superior courts and the Spanish Supreme Court. We can assess the risks, costs, procedures and advise on the best strategies when dealing with the judicial system in Spain. If there is a cross-border element our dual-qualified lawyers will be able to advise on the regulation and associated implications.
