Benjamin Wells
Benjamin Wells is a partner at Belgravia Law, a London-headquartered dispute resolution boutique recognised as Dispute Resolution Law Firm of the Year in England at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2026. The award places a spotlight on a firm that has built its reputation around a single, focused mission: resolving complex disputes for clients through litigation, arbitration and related contentious work.
The Corporate INTL Global Awards recognise leading advisers across jurisdictions and disciplines, and an award in dispute resolution carries particular weight given how demanding contentious work can be. For a boutique whose entire identity is built around resolving disputes, the honour of Dispute Resolution Law Firm of the Year in England is a fitting acknowledgement of a clear and consistent strategic focus.
A dedicated dispute resolution boutique
Belgravia Law describes itself as a leading dispute resolution boutique law firm, specialising in dispute resolution with a distinguished focus on litigation, arbitration and sanctions. Rather than spreading itself across every area of legal practice, the firm concentrates on contentious matters, an approach that allows its partners to develop deep experience in the tactics, procedure and strategy that difficult disputes demand. For clients facing high-stakes conflicts, this specialisation offers the reassurance of working with advisers whose entire practice is devoted to resolving disputes effectively.
The firm operates from offices in several of the world's leading commercial and legal centres. Alongside its London base at Eaton Gate, Belgravia Law maintains a presence in New York, Paris and Singapore, giving it reach across the major hubs where cross-border disputes are commonly fought. This international footprint is particularly relevant to a modern disputes practice, where parties, assets, evidence and governing laws frequently span multiple jurisdictions.
Breadth of contentious expertise
Although the firm is focused on dispute resolution, the range of matters it handles is broad. Belgravia Law's practice areas include international commercial arbitration, investment arbitration, commercial litigation, and banking, finance and investment disputes. The firm also advises on cryptocurrency disputes, sanctions, construction disputes, property disputes, contentious trusts and matrimonial disputes, and has developed offerings addressing emerging issues such as artificial intelligence and tariffs. As a partner, Benjamin Wells contributes to this contentious practice, helping clients navigate the litigation and arbitration processes through which commercial and financial disputes are resolved.

Litigation, arbitration and sanctions in England
England, and London in particular, has long been one of the world's pre-eminent venues for resolving international disputes. Its courts and arbitral institutions are chosen by parties across the globe for their expertise, procedural rigour and the enforceability of their outcomes. A boutique such as Belgravia Law is well placed to serve clients who select England as their forum, combining focused knowledge of English litigation and arbitration with an understanding of the international context in which many disputes arise. The firm's work on sanctions is especially timely, given the growing importance of sanctions compliance and related disputes for businesses operating internationally.
For a partner like Benjamin Wells, this environment offers the opportunity to act on precisely the kind of demanding, cross-border contentious matters for which the firm is known. Clients benefit from partner-level attention within a practice that is structured entirely around resolving disputes, whether through the courts, through arbitration, or through the strategic handling of sanctions and other specialist issues.
Belgravia Law's recognition as Dispute Resolution Law Firm of the Year in England at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2026 reflects the strength of this focused model. For businesses, financial institutions and individuals confronting serious disputes, the firm and its partners, including Benjamin Wells, offer a concentrated, internationally minded dispute resolution capability rooted in one of the world's leading legal jurisdictions.
