Bates White is pleased to announce that Partner Glenn R. George has been recognized as a recommended expert in the Lexology Index (formerly Who's Who Legal) Arbitration Expert Witnesses 2025 report. This recognition places Dr. George among the top echelons of arbitration professionals.
Dr. George, a Partner in Bates White’s International Arbitration and Energy Practices, is a seasoned advisor and expert witness in the global power and utilities, oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, water, chemical/petrochemical, transport, and related infrastructure sectors. With a rich background as an engineer, economist, and business manager, he brings a wealth of knowledge in strategy, policy, regulation, technology, finance, and risk assessment to tackle complex business challenges.
During the research phase for this report, Dr. George’s peers and clients told Lexology Index:
- “Glenn is extremely knowledgeable about a range of industries and their interplay with quantum.”
- “He has a strong capacity to synthesize complex matters.”
- “He is very precise, always focusing the arbitrators on the proper issues during cross-examination.”
Among his recent accomplishments, in 2023 Dr. George testified—in one of the most high-profile disputes in the arbitration field to date—on behalf of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in Nigeria v. P&ID at trial in the High Court of England and Wales. The matter garnered significant media attention, and in his decision, Justice Robin Knowles acknowledged “evidence from expert witnesses … of true distinction, experience, and expertise.”
"We are thrilled to see Glenn receive this well-deserved recognition," said Scott Weishaar, Bates White Managing Partner. "His thorough analyses and ability to clearly explain intricate details make him a standout expert witness. His work has influenced positive outcomes in high-stakes arbitrations, making him a sought out and trusted resource for our clients."
