Amy Frey focuses on all types of cross-border disputes, including investment treaty and commercial arbitration, as well as public international law and human rights law. A partner in our International Arbitration practice, Amy’s experience ranges from representing corporates and investors from all over the world with claims against foreign states arising from bilateral investment treaties and the Energy Charter Treaty to contract and licensing disputes.
Amy counsels clients in arbitration under the rules of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, the International Chamber of Commerce, the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce and the UN Commission on International Trade Law. She also advises clients on foreign investment structuring and planning, on domestic litigation proceedings involving challenges to and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards, and on EU disputes involving state aid and intra-EU arbitration. She has represented clients in claims against Algeria, Argentina, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Italy, Kazakhstan, Romania, Spain and Venezuela. Amy is also experienced in handling requests for interim, injunctive relief and in ICSID annulment proceedings.
Recent matters have concerned complex tax and tariff disputes, including the application of customs duties on imports, changes to corporate income tax regimes, taxes on the export of oil and gas, transport pricing, and so-called “windfall profits” taxes.
In addition, Amy takes on public interest law and pro bono projects, particularly involving human rights law, with matters covering domestic violence, child abuse, asylum, juvenile delinquent status and human trafficking. She has long been committed to seeking justice and assistance for refugees.
