Lawdragon Unveils Global Litigation 500 List, Recognising Top Lawyers Worldwide

The legal world has a new benchmark, with Lawdragon announcing the first-ever Global Litigation 500 list. This impressive roster features 500 lawyers from around the globe, specialising in international arbitration, public international litigation, and advising leading corporations and power brokers.

The list is a testament to the global reach and influence of these legal luminaries, who work before international tribunals, arbitration forums, and in court. Among the honourees are some familiar names, such as Pierre Bienvenu in Montréal, Mina Matin in New York, and Kevin Hong and Camille Jojo in Hong Kong.

London is well-represented on the list, with James Rogers and Sherina Petit joining the ranks, as well as Holly Stebbing, Paul Stothard, Deirdre Walker, and Patrick Bourke. Ruth Cowley is another London-based lawyer to make the cut. Rajaee Rouhani hails from Melbourne, while Matthew Kirtland is based in Washington, D.C., and Yaroslav Klimov calls Moscow home.

The list also includes lawyers from multiple offices, including Perth (Penelope Ford and Dylan McKimmie), Sydney (Tamlyn Mills), and Dubai (Deirdre Walker). Houston is represented by Gerard Pecht and Andrew Price, further demonstrating the international scope of the Global Litigation 500.

Martin Valasek is another notable name on the list, based in Montréal. The list is determined through independent research, nominations, and input from editorial advisors, similar to the methodology for the Lawdragon 500 Leading Lawyers in America list.

Our website features 26 lawyers on the Lawdragon Global Litigation 500, making it one of three law firms with more than 25 lawyers on the list. The entire list can be found on the Lawdragon website, offering a comprehensive resource for those seeking legal expertise on a global scale.
