INTERNATIONAL TRADE & CROSS-BORDER LITIGATION
The world is internationalized and reduced to a global community by treaties and conventions that countries assent to and by the necessity of the interdependency between and among nations. This enhances friendly and business relationships among nations with firms, corporations, companies and governments investing in and funding projects in foreign countries. International investment and financing of projects carry a corresponding responsibility of transfer of profit and reparation of capital from one jurisdiction to another.
Cross-border business takes place against an increasingly complex framework of international law and domestic regulations, the effective navigation of which is crucial to bringing goods and services to the market.
