One position, everywhere
A controlling statement of facts and arguments that every local filing conforms to — the discipline that keeps foreign proceedings from arming your adversary.
Coordinated international counsel
Five jurisdictions, five law firms, one strategy — or none.
Aun & Co. coordinates multi-jurisdiction legal matters: one strategic counsel instructing and synchronising local firms so positions never collide across borders.
Multi-jurisdiction matters fail in the seams: local counsel in each country act competently on their slice while the slices contradict each other — an admission in one proceeding arming the adversary in another, parallel deadlines colliding, settlement in one forum mispricing the whole. Coordinated counsel is the correction: one firm holding the entire map, instructing local lawyers within a single strategy, and owning the coherence no individual local file can see. Aun & Co. plays that role for clients across twenty-plus countries, working in Hebrew, Arabic and English.
The work spans
- Single strategic ownership across all jurisdictions in a matter
- Selection and instruction of local counsel in each country
- Position control: no filing contradicts another anywhere
- Consolidated timeline of every proceeding and deadline
- One reporting line and one cost picture for the client
- The same conflict is running in three countries and each local firm sees only its own file.
- A filing abroad just contradicted your position at home and the other side noticed first.
- You are spending across multiple firms with no single view of cost or progress.
- A cross-border matter is starting and you want the coordination designed before the seams open.
The firm builds the master map first — every proceeding, party, deadline and dependency — then writes the position paper each local counsel drafts within: the facts as stated everywhere, the arguments reserved, the admissions forbidden. Local firms are chosen for the specific fight, not from a directory, and instructed in writing against the strategy. The client receives one narrative and one number, instead of five invoices and a contradiction.
04 · What you get
Counsel chosen for the fight
Local firms selected for the specific dispute and instructed in writing, not inherited from a network directory.
One line to the client
A single report, a single consolidated timeline, a single cost picture — coordination the client can actually feel.
The firm has coordinated a commercial conflict spanning proceedings in several countries, where the client's prior filings had begun to diverge. The engagement rebuilt a single position paper, brought each local file into conformity, and sequenced the proceedings so the strongest forum ruled first.
Described in abbreviated, anonymised form to preserve client confidentiality.
Why do multi-jurisdiction disputes need a coordinating counsel?
Because contradictions between proceedings are the adversary's cheapest weapon: a statement filed in one country is evidence in another. A single strategic owner exists to make every local move serve one plan — competence in each forum does not produce coherence across them.
How are local law firms chosen and managed?
Selected per matter for the specific court, subject and opponent; instructed in writing against a controlling position paper; and synchronised through a consolidated timeline. The client approves the selections; the coordinating counsel owns the outcome of the whole.
Does coordination add a layer of cost?
It adds a line and removes a multiple: duplicated work across firms, contradiction repair, and the strategic losses of unsynchronised proceedings all cost more than coordination does. The consolidated cost picture also, for the first time, makes the total visible.
