Banking and financial services litigation
- The team at Gresham Legal has substantial experience of acting for major international financial institutions and a large majority of our work has involved retail and investment banks, or their financial products.
- We also act against major banks and other financial institutions. Our business model means that we are not typically bound by commercial or professional conflicts of interest, which can prevent larger firms from acting.
- We focus on complex and high value banking disputes, spanning multiple jurisdictions, but retain the flexibility to act on the full range of disputes for both corporate and individual clients at the domestic level.
