As one of the few Israeli firms routinely handling investor-state cases, Gornitzky & Co. brings ‘unique and exceptional experience in dealing with complex international arbitrations’. The team is also equipped to handle high-stakes commercial cases — with strong showings in the real estate, construction, energy and technology sectors — as well as award enforcement proceedings. Department head Eli Cohen is widely recognised as a go-to arbitration specialist and is sought after by both corporate and sovereign clients for large-scale disputes. The deep bench additionally includes Nuna Lerner, who was recently selected to act as Chair of the re-established Israeli ICC National Committee in Israel; Nir Keidar, who is increasingly active in investor-state work and up-and-coming specialist Myriam Feinberg. Shai Sharvit left the firm in June 2025.
