Stewarts, acting in conjunction with US counsel Floyd Wisner and Robert Correia, has successfully opposed a jurisdiction challenge in the USA on behalf of its client Amy Owens (née Wilson), who was seriously injured in a dune buggy accident in Dubai.
The jurisdiction challenge (or “forum non conveniens motion”) was brought by the US adventure buggy manufacturer Polaris Industries Inc., in opposition to Amy’s claim for damages due to the serious burns she sustained in an accident in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on 30 November 2017.
