International Trade/WTO

Sidley Austin is recognised as a superb choice for handling all stages of WTO proceedings, acting for governments across the world and for affected corporates or industry associations in cases that have significant implications for global trade and intergovernmental relations. The law firm benefits from highly regarded teams in Geneva and Washington, DC that have demonstrable experience in complex issues. Brussels-based partners act for clients seeking either to avert or to overturn the imposition of EU trade remedies within the context of anti-dumping or safeguard investigations. Sidley Austin also handles customs matters related to Brexit, as well as trade policy and strategic advisory work. The firm is also increasingly active for companies affected by sanctions imposed against Russia.
