Inside the world of complex commercial disputes

With Mayer Brown

Apply to attend

Join us on the afternoon of Wednesday 29 October for a virtual student event with Mayer Brown.

Commercial dispute resolution encapsulates a wide-ranging and often headline-grabbing variety of matters. From contract breaches to high-stakes shareholder litigation, to coordinating investigations matters and advising on compliance matters, commercial disputes form a crucial part of global legal work.

The event will offer an inside look at how Mayer Brown lawyers tackle cross-border disputes, balancing efficiency with managing risk and client expectations. You’ll also get the lowdown on the key differences between litigation, arbitration and investigations, and learn why keeping clients compliant with emerging regulations and sanctions is more important than ever.

The speakers will also reflect on their career journeys, and the skills needed to succeed in a contentious seat and practice area like dispute resolution.

The speakers

Chris Roberts, counsel in the litigation & regulatory enforcement team
Hormis Kallarackel, associate in the litigation & regulatory enforcement team
Elinam Amegadzie, trainee in the litigation & regulatory enforcement team

Following the panel discussion there will be virtual networking with the speakers, Mayer Brown trainees and members of the firm’s graduate recruitment team.
