International Litigation

Duncan Lewis Litigation Solicitors – International litigation

 

 

International disputes require specialist legal advice because of the complexities involved in cross-border litigation.

 

It is usual to have a clause in a contract or agreement stipulating which jurisdiction a dispute will be resolved under, for example, the courts of England and Wales. Although in some cases, a party may prefer to have a matter resolved in their own country. This may be because of the costs involved – or because a court hearing in a particular jurisdiction might be advantageous legally.

 

In any case involving cross-border disputes or international law, it is crucial to seek legal advice as soon as possible.

 

If any dispute is not brought to the attention of the other party immediately, a court may also decide that continuing to comply with the terms of a contract or the actions of one party under the contract constitute agreement to the contract or the way it has been enacted.

 

Duncan Lewis litigation solicitors have considerable experience in international law across most areas of the law – and the Duncan Lewis litigation team is able to call on the expertise of our in house legal experts to build a case.

 

Duncan Lewis' staff speak more than 60 languages between them, saving on the cost of interpreters in most international cases.
