Among the outstanding WilmerHale lawyers recognized, Gary Born again ranks in a class alone as a “Star Performer” in the field of International Arbitration. Described as a “super-litigator,” Chambers UK noted that “only after you've seen Gary Born in action will you understand why he has the reputation he does.” WilmerHale's International Arbitration practice broke into the top-tier this year as a result of a “heavy-weight caseload” and an “outstanding team” including a “quality of associates that is second-to-none.”
