Gornitzky & Co. houses ‘one of the top three litigation teams in Israel’, according to satisfied clients. The diverse practice acts for a mix of multinational corporations, small-to-medium sized companies and individuals across a range of litigation, arbitration and mediation proceedings. The team further stands out for its activity in high-stakes cases, particularly in the financial services, technology, transport and energy areas, among others. Department head Ofer Tzur is considered by some as ’Israel's pre-eminent litigator’; his work takes in both domestic and cross-border cases. Other senior litigators include high-profile firm chairman Pinhas Rubin; managing partner Kfir Yadgar, who specialises in hospitality and transport-related cases; and Ofer Fleischer, who focuses on corporate, capital markets, and energy disputes. Also noted are Eli Cohen (‘highly skilled and knowledgeable’); Maya Sabari ('very sharp and smart’) and newly promoted partner Inbal Ronel.
