South East firm Gardner Leader has bolstered the dispute resolution team with the arrival of partner Noor Kadhim in the London office.

International arbitration expert Noor has worked in London, Paris, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with previous positions including legal consultant in international arbitration for the US Department of Commerce, and head of international arbitration and art law at Cubism Law. Her specialist areas include international commercial and investment arbitration, and art and cultural heritage law. Noor’s arrival brings Gardner Leader’s team of arbitration specialists to seven, and its dispute resolution team to 16.

Managing partner Derek Rodgers said: ‘We are delighted to welcome Noor. She brings such varied international arbitration and art law expertise to our rapidly expanding Dispute Resolution team who are all specialists in their specific field of litigation, from international arbitration to disputes in inheritance, property and commercial matters.

‘Her appointment is also an excellent example of how regionally-based legal firms such as Gardner Leader can offer clients internationally renowned experience at the highest level.’
