Attorneys in Shaw Norton Degan, L.L.P.'s International practice group have developed a strong capability to serve a wide range of international litigation and business needs. We have experience handling litigation involving international commercial disputes for Latin American and Asian companies doing business in the United States, advising United States companies involved in large projects, transactions and disputes overseas and handling international arbitrations, such as complex insurance coverage issues governed by the International Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (New York Convention). We also have consulted with foreign businesses contemplating doing business in the United States and in planning overseas business transactions.

Our attorneys understand New Orleans' unique strategic location and historic ties to Latin America and are committed to facilitating the growing commerce between Gulf South companies and the emerging markets of Latin America. We have bilingual capabilities and are actively involved in numerous local, regional, national and international organizations regarding international law, trade and business.
