RIAA Barker Gillette played a key role in Endeavor Global's expansion into Pakistan by establishing Endeavor Pakistan. This marks Endeavor's 40th office worldwide.
RIAA Barker Gillette recently secured an important injunction restraining the Karachi Port Trust from drawing down on our client South Asia Pakistan Terminals' $2 million guarantee. This was a significant win in an ongoing dispute related to construction of a deep-water container terminal.
