Rachael Kent serves as vice chair of the global international arbitration group, where she contributes over 25 years of experience in commercial and investment disputes straddling both common law and civil law jurisdictions. Danielle Morris is noted for her strong recent run of investor-state cases, where she has predominantly represented investors in complex, multi-jurisdictional proceedings.
