In light of the UK’s historic vote to leave the EU, dually qualified English barrister and U.S. lawyer Robin Rathmell spoke with InsideCounsel about the challenges and opportunities facing companies litigating in the UK. Drawing from his unique understanding of the relationships between U.S. and English courts, Mr. Rathmell addresses some of the key areas of UK law that will be impacted by a Brexit, including anti-injunction suits and enforcement. As Mr. Rathmell states, “[w]hich UK laws are recast and which EU ones are voluntarily adopted by the UK will define the ultimate impact, which could range from negligible for some cases, to profound.”
