As a result of the internationalization of the Israeli economy in recent years, Israeli courts have increasingly served as the forum for the adjudication of transnational business disputes. Yet during that period, Israeli law has not undergone any significant developments in most areas that routinely affect foreign litigants – such as the exercise of jurisdiction over foreign businesses or alternative methods for taking testimony in foreign countries.
For over a decade, the attorneys in our firm have specialized in representing foreign companies in commercial disputes before Israeli courts. Our typical cases include corporate governance disputes, disputes between manufacturers and their former (or present) distributors, licensing disputes, insurance coverage disputes, aviation disputes, enforcing foreign judgments and foreign arbitral awards, estate disputes, and product liability claims. There is hardly an area of international commerce that we have not litigated before Israeli courts.
Our concentration in international litigation in Israel, combined with the years of experience that our attorneys have had in handling complex litigation at major New York City law firms, make us uniquely qualified to advise non-Israeli clients regarding virtually every kind of commercial dispute involving Israeli parties or Israeli law.
