As well as being experts in obtaining judgments and awards for our clients, we have years of experience in successful enforcement.
We regularly enforce domestic and overseas court judgments, and arbitral and divorce awards, against parties and states who will do everything they can to avoid complying with what they have been ordered to do. That’s why we are regularly recognised as asset recovery specialists.
