Particularly experienced in investor-state cases, Jones Day‘s ’highly-regarded specialist team of arbitration practitioners’ in London routinely acts in disputes involving sensitive political considerations. The international arbitration practice of team head Michelle Bradfield, who also sits as arbitrator, regularly includes conflicts involving international law issues; Rhys Thomas is ‘perfect for complex arbitrations with dense facts’; Lee Coffey has significant expertise in multi-jurisdictional conflicts; and Julian Bailey acts in both commercial and investor-state arbitrations. Isabella Noyen and Sahba Mohtadi are also both experienced arbitration practitioners. In January 2025, former Lord Chancellor Alex Chalk KC joined from 6KBW College Hill.
