In brief
A campaign has been launched to promote England and Wales as the jurisdiction of choice for international companies to resolve their commercial disputes. Fronted by the Law Society and backed by the government and the City, part of the campaign includes a brochure, England and Wales: the Jurisdiction of Choice, put together by 26 City law firms, which is aimed at international in-house counsel. In the foreword, Jack Straw, secretary of state for justice, says it “is right to trumpet the success of England and Wales as the jurisdiction of choice for the resolution of disputes arising all over the world”.
