HFW supports international commerce, working across borders on disputes, transactions and regulatory matters. With more than 700 lawyers across our international network, we combine sector knowledge with local insight across Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.
Americas
In the Americas, our Houston team advises on disputes, transactions and regulation across energy, shipping, insurance, finance, construction, and travel and cruise. This includes shipping work involving admiralty matters and dispute resolution, including international arbitration.
We also support work across the Caribbean and Latin America, including through our British Virgin Islands capability and a cooperation arrangement with Brazil-based CAR in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
