Major chemicals firm—Supply agreement arbitration

Represented a chemical company in a confidential arbitration in which French, American, and UK chemicals firms disputed breach of contract claims related to the sale of a chemical plant and subsequent supply agreements. Key issues included performance duties required by “best efforts” clauses under Delaware and English law, validity of a series of force majeure declarations, whether the duty of good faith and fair dealing required expenditure to reach industry performance benchmarks, and requirements to retain key employees during a control transfer. Resulted in 8-figure award for our client, including attorneys’ fees and costs.
