Work highlights
Advised Temp+ LTD on successfully challenging the enforcement of a London arbitral award before Iranian courts, preventing the auction of its vessel Sibirskiy 2112. The challenge was based on a prior conflicting award, lack of proper notification, misidentification of an agent, flawed valuation, and the Russia-Iran bilateral declaration on foreign judgment enforcement.
