Brayden Winkler

I am an Australian-qualified cross-border disputes lawyer, admitted to the Supreme Court of New South Wales. My career has run through a Fortune 500 technology company, an international arbitration boutique, and an international law firm, which means I bring both a commercial, in-house perspective and a disputes background to the same matter.

My focus is international commercial and investment-treaty arbitration. In practice that has meant acting for sovereign States in high-stakes disputes, serving as tribunal secretary to arbitral tribunals, and working on the enforcement and annulment of awards before EU and common-law courts. A public-international-law foundation from Leiden underpins the treaty and sovereign-State work.

Winkler Legal grew out of that experience: a boutique consultancy where senior legal judgement and a commercial point of view come from the same person. The work is focused, flexible, and cost-effective, and it spares clients the overhead of a full-service firm.
