Koppenol-Laforce discusses Russia v Yukos in Houston

12 February 2018
Marielle Koppenol-Laforce, a partner in Houthoff's Dispute Resolution Team involved in the Russia v Yukos case, recently visited Houston to share her experience and talk about the Global Dispute of the Year. Carmen Bakas, a Houthoff representative based in Houston, organised the meetings.

Local law firms, accountants, tax advisors and businesses in Houston were eager to learn more about the Russia v Yukos case. In late 2017, The American Lawyer chose Houthoff as the winner of its Global Dispute of the Year Award in Investment Arbitration for Russia v Yukos. The decision to set aside the Yukos Awards made headlines worldwide, and the proceedings are being followed with keen interest all over the globe by practitioners of various backgrounds. With these setting-aside proceedings, Houthoff also previously won the GAR Award for Most Important Published Decision.
