Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP has an exceptional record in bulge-bracket investment and commercial arbitrations, and is further recognised for its expertise in the global enforcement of arbitration awards. It has represented multinationals in a long list of cases against Latin American states, including cases involving expropriation, particularly the Government of Venezuela and Venezuelan state-entities. More recently, it has also launched cases on behalf of clients against the Republic of Colombia and the United Mexican States. New York partner Rahim Moloo has emerged as a prominent name in Latin America arbitration, acting for a range of US-based, European and Asian multinationals, along with a number of Latin American businesses.

Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP’s international arbitration group frequently works alongside the firm’s litigation lawyers to provide integrated advice on multi-jurisdictional arbitral disputes and related litigation—including enforcement actions. The group typically represents corporate clients in commercial and investor cases worldwide, where it often forms cross-office teams with arbitration specialists in London and Dubai. New York-based Rahim Moloo co-heads the global practice and, together with the litigation team, recently represented Jay-Z in a dispute with Bacardi, which involved a series of ICDR arbitrations and parallel litigation. The group also draws on New York’s Lindsey Schmidt, whose practice spans arbitral and judicial disputes, and talented of counsel Ankita Ritwik, who is based in Washington DC.
