The global litigation practice at King & Spalding LLP is adept at handling complex cases, often involving multiple jurisdictions and parallel proceedings, with expertise in bet-the-company stakes internationally. Blue-chip multinationals rely on the knowledge of the practice, with clients from the energy, banking and finance, pharma, automotive, and manufacturing sectors, among others. Motions to compel arbitration, anti-suit injunctions, asset recovery, and enforcement actions are all key strengths of the practice. Leadership of the practice is split between Andy Bayman in Atlanta and Reggie Smith in Houston. Smith covers international arbitration and litigation, with a particular focus on energy and extractive industries as well as enforcing arbitral awards against foreign states. Operating out of New York, Randy Mastro represents a vast array of clients in complex civil cases, with expertise in securities litigation and white-collar crime matters. Also in New York, Richard Marooney and Olivia Radin are key names, with Radin having joined from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP in January 2023, often acting on internal and regulatory investigations, in addition to congressional inquiries.
