Experience

Targeted legal solutions individually tailored for your needs.

My experience includes acting on behalf of foreign investors in investor-state disputes under the ICSID and UNCITRAL rules. I have counseled Scandinavian, Dutch, and French investors in various investment disputes against governments in Central and Eastern Europe. The disputes cover a wide range of industries from banking and real estate to mining and waste management, and total more than $10 billion in controversy.  As counsel, I am actively involved in the whole life cycle of the dispute – from evidence gathering and the request to arbitrate, to the issuance of the final award and its enforcement.

I collaborate with some of the world’s leading international arbitration practitioners based in New York and London, as well as other major arbitration hubs throughout Europe.

In addition to international arbitration, I assist international organizations representing atrocity victims with international law questions related to human rights abuses in West Africa.

My transactional experience involves representing investors in complex deals with a focus on Central and Eastern Europe. I have counseled clients on cross-border mergers and acquisitions, private equity and venture capital deals, and various corporate restructurings often involving multiple jurisdictions in Europe and the United States. As part of my practice, I have advised clients in various stages of growth, ranging from industry leaders to early-stage companies and start-ups representing industries such as IT, telecoms, real estate, and the energy sector. Over the years, I have counseled some of the region’s leading VC funds investing locally and globally with a particular focus on the technology and AI sectors.
