Our award winning team has a market leading reputation and is highly respected by clients and peers alike. 

We handle all aspects of litigation and arbitration, including financial and banking disputes, recovery and insolvency, professional indemnity, intellectual property, information technology, construction and engineering, fraud and asset tracing, property disputes, trust litigation and business investigations and regulation.

We are highly respected among our peers.  In addition to the firm’s own clients, we are frequently referred work by many of the top international law firms when they are faced with conflict situations.

Stephenson Harwood have acted in many of the UK’s top litigation matters in recent years, including Maxwell, Lonrho/Fayed and Kuwait Investment Authority/Grupo Torras. Indeed, we acted in six of the top 10 ‘disputes of the decade’, as identified by Legal Business magazine.

We are a past winner of the Legal Business dispute resolution team of the year award for the successful asset-tracing operation on behalf of Westminster City Council against Dame Shirley Porter.
