International Arbitration Cases

Flexibility is the key to Menas' approach to handling clients' needs. Every project that we undertake for our clients is tailor-made to their specific requirements. One of our key objectives is to ensure that our knowledge provides added value by focusing on the client's principal interests and concerns, and identifying the crucial strategic issues that need to be considered.

Our long-standing reputation and experience also enables us to recruit and mobilise experts and specialists through our extensive network of contacts at universities, research centres, specialist publications, and associated consulting firms. We have extensive experience of working with technical specialists, for example in connection with major arbitration enquiries, and of directing and managing teams drawn from a wide variety of subject disciplines and different institutions.

Our UK-based team of dedicated professionals is supported by experienced specialists in countries across the entire non-OECD world. Menas' initial focus on the Middle East and North Africa has been expanded since 1988 to include Africa, South America, Central, South and South East Asia. This extension of our coverage is structured upon our network of in-country specialists and on linkages with associated consulting firms, which enable us to offer clients a combination of international expertise supported by essential local knowledge and high level local contacts.

This flexibility is particularly important when working in para-legal and expert support services on behalf of lawyers and insurance underwriters engaged on major arbitration cases, which frequently involve a determination of whether a large-scale insurance claim arose from political or normal business/economic risk.
