Data Driven Disputes

Data is a powerful tool for driving change. That’s why we’re using data to test hypotheses on key contentious issues and how they will develop in the future - including class actions, adjudication, enforcement of intellectual property rights or the rise of ESG claims. 

This hub is dedicated to Data Driven Disputes, and will grow over time as we feed our curiosity and test our theories. Our dispute resolution specialists are taking a research-led approach to test ideas and provide empirical evidence to support expert insights. 

If you’d like to hear more about this approach, or any of the topics featured, please get in touch.
