The team at Outer Temple Chambers is perhaps best known for its strength in handling cryptoasset recovery cases, dispute resolution work and regulatory issues. In a prominent matter, Andrew Spink KC appeared before the DIFC Court of First Instance in the high-profile re-trial of Gate Mena DMCC and Huobi Mena FZE v Tabarak Investment Capital Ltd, a longrunning, complex dispute arising from a crypto to US currency transaction. The case involved multiple claims brought against Tabarak, including allegations of breach of regulatory obligations, contract and fiduciary duties relating to escrow and custody services provided by Tabarak.
