Bates Wells | London International Disputes Week: Defending International Tort Class Actions in the London Courts

Uncategorized

4 June 2025
As part of London International Disputes Week, we will be co-hosting a hybrid event with Henderson Chambers on Wednesday 4 June, from 9am – 11am.

We are witnessing a rapid rise in new forms of international claims against London-based defendants, targeting supply chains, foreign subsidiaries, investors and NGOs. The London Courts are showing an increased willingness to expand their jurisdiction to any part of the world where there is a connection to the UK, particularly where claimants may lack funding options in their own countries.
