Forming a key part of an integrated global disputes offering, Jones Day’s US group benefits from the ability to draw on international arbitration specialists in many of the world’s leading arbitration centers, with recent cases involving teams in London, Singapore, Paris, and Dubai, among others. The team has notched up a strong run of investment disputes of late, where it is particularly active against various post-Soviet and CIS states in ICSID and UNCITRAL cases. In Washington DC, Melissa Gorsline is a ‘very sharp and highly skilled advocate’ and possesses extensive experience in investor-state arbitrations. Also noted are Steven Smith in San Francisco; Stephen Pearson, based between New York and London; and Paul Hines in San Francisco.

‘A very talented team that is able to focus on key issues and provide a tailored service. Often competitors will use a blanket approach of trying to cover every angle of the case, even when it is unnecessary, resulting in inefficiency and much higher cost. Jones Day should be highly commended for its approach.’
‘Melissa Gorsline in Washington DC is a very sharp and highly skilled advocate. One of the best in the cross examination of witnesses.’
‘Associate Maria Pradilla Picas in Washington DC is always on top of the detail and projects boundless enthusiasm.’
