We are delighted to be one of the founding members of London International Disputes Week (LIDW).

It is aimed at lawyers, judges, arbitrators, academics and others involved in using or administrating dispute resolution from around the world and hailing from numerous sectors. There will also be many opportunities to enjoy networking with colleagues, including a welcome drinks reception at Banking Hall and a gala dinner at historic Mansion House.
