Litigation boutique Zaiwalla & Co successfully overturns controversial Judgment in Venezuela
gold case for the return of gold valued at $1.8bn. In a Judgment handed down on 05 October
2020, the English Court of Appeal granted the appeal of Zaiwalla’s client, Banco Central de
Venezuela (BCV). This case raises many interesting questions on international law and has
been widely covered in the international press. Mr Zaiwalla was recently named The Times
Lawyer of the Week for his efforts on this case.
