United States > Dispute resolution > International arbitration

Demonstrating a marked focus on Latin America-related work, Clifford Chance’s international arbitration practice continues to grow its roster of investment cases seated in Washington DC, where it is currently acting on seven matters. The team additionally handled a slew of post-M&A disputes over the past year. Divided between New York and Washington DC, the group benefits from the ability to lean on the wider firm’s generous global network for cross-border support. In Washington DC, José García Cueto specializes in commercial and investor-state cases and is acting as lead, or co-lead, counsel in matters worth over $6bn. Anthony Candido is noted in New York.

United States > Dispute resolution > Securities litigation: defense

The New York office of Clifford Chance has a small but active group of securities litigators led by the head of the US litigation practice Robert Houck. Experienced in complex cross-border securities and commercial litigation, including class actions and investigations, Houck frequently acts for large companies, underwriters, corporate officers, and outside directors in class actions. His recent work includes the successful defense of ICBC Standard Bank in a class action alleging manipulation of platinum and palladium benchmarks in London. All claims were dismissed. On that matter, Houck worked closely with John Friel, who focuses on securities, derivatives, and antitrust matters, and senior counsel David Yeres. Partner Anthony Candido is also active in federal and state courts at the trial and appellate level, and he recently worked with Houck to advise a major US financial institution on SEC and DOJ investigations, which also involved key team members in the firm’s Washington DC office.
