Philip Corsano has extensive experience managing large-scale mediations, particularly in high-risk areas such as expropriation worldwide. He has collaborated with major international institutions specialising in insurance against ‘creeping expropriation’ risks. His work includes significant projects in Russia and the former Soviet States, focusing on Oil & Gas, Telecom Infrastructure, and the Airline industry.

Our team also has expertise in handling international sanctions disputes.

Early mediation is often beneficial as it reduces costs. According to the UK Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) 1.1, cases should be handled justly and at proportionate costs. Mediation aligns with this objective and is increasingly conducted across multiple jurisdictions, offering parties greater flexibility to structure mutually agreeable terms.

 suitable for mediation. Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls and Head of Civil Justice, stated that ADR should be an integral part of the dispute resolution process, focusing on "resolution" rather than "dispute." Mediation allows for flexible, binding agreements in a neutral jurisdiction of choice, often avoiding the high costs of UK litigation.

Litigation costs are high due to expert evidence, discovery, and the need to retain counsel through solicitors. Mediation can streamline the process. Even in the 15-20% of cases where mediation does not resolve the dispute, it helps clarify the parties' positions, potentially simplifying further litigation.
