Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP‘s transnational litigation group specializes in complex international disputes, working with high-net-worth individuals and leading companies on leading cases. Leading supply chain cases including human rights and ESG-related matters are often undertaken by the practice that is adept at defending corporations in regulatory investigations. Sensitive internal investigations across financial institutions, insurance, and accountancy are a key strength of the team. In the Los Angeles office, Perlette Michèle Jura is a co-founder of the practice, and plays an integral role in the environmental, consumer, and tort matters acted on by the team. In the same office, William Thomson notably represents Chevron in complex protracted litigation, and is part of the leadership team alongside New York-based Andrea Smith. Smith is skilled at handling litigation in front of both federal circuit and supreme courts, and is notably Dole Food’s lead counsel. Operating out of Washington DC, Thomas Hungar aids clients with both congressional investigations and RICO litigation, and is an integral part of the team representing Chevron, while Anne Champion in New York remains a key name for complex international disputes, including RICO, fraud, and tort claims.
