律师

Ted Cook advises clients on complex commercial litigation, international arbitration, and internal investigations across a range of industries including financial services, aviation, sports, and life sciences. He has experience in matters before the English courts (the High Court’s Chancery and Commercial Courts), in arbitration disputes under the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), the DIFC-LCIA Arbitration Centre, and the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC).
