Baker McKenzie appointed to Support UK Government on WTO Disputes

Baker McKenzie, a BSCC Patron, has been appointed to the inaugural panel of the UK Government to provide support through WTO disputes.

The leading global law firm has been chosen to join the first Post-Brexit trade panel following the deal signed with the EU at the end of last year. The UK Government Trade Law Panel (TLP) will aid the newly independent WTO Member Government which is now responsible for its own litigation before the WTO Dispute Settlement Body. The top priority is to ensure ‘global Britain’ remains compliant with rules and regulations as the UK takes the opportunity to re-engage with international relationships beyond the EU.
