International Arbitration and Cross-Border Litigation

Counsel.

Oleksandr Frolov specializes in international arbitration, and cross-border and domestic litigation. He represents multinational corporations, states, in particular the State of Ukraine, state-owned enterprises and government institutions in high-value disputes before different fora in European and Middle Eastern counties, and in the US. The cases cover a wide range of complex issues involving various industry sectors such as banking, international trade and foreign direct investment, oil and gas, and privatisation.

Beyond dispute resolution, and as part of a broader commercial practice, Oleksandr advises clients on commercial matters, including military and defence spheres, technology, cryptocurrency, fintech, insurance, and reinsurance on matters that could become contentious. He provides expert counsel on matters related to sanctions, white-collar/fraud issues, including money laundering, and bribery concerns, as well as matters arising out of causing harm.

Before joining the firm in 2020 Oleksandr practiced at leading international law firms in Kyiv and London.
