Brexit: No Lugano – so what’s next?

Following reports that the EU Commission intends to block the UK’s accession to the Lugano Convention, join us for a 30 minute webinar in which we outline the practical impact on the way in which parties conduct cross-border litigation between the UK and EU.

Our international panel will provide:

1. An update on the EU Commission’s decision to block the UK’s accession to the Lugano Convention and the procedure that will now follow to implement it.

2. An overview of the practical impact of this decision on cross-border litigation between the UK and EU. In particular, the enforceability of English court judgments and jurisdiction clauses in Europe.

3. An assessment on the potential for an increase in jurisdiction challenges and interim relief being sought from the English courts.

4. A summary of the available alternatives to English court clauses where enforceability risk exists, including arbitration.
