Orlando Gledhill's practice encompasses a broad range of commercial work in litigation and arbitration. Described in Chambers & Partners (Fraud: Civil) as 'brilliant' and a 'popular choice due to his industry, "he sweats blood for a case'" (2009) and recommended for his 'real depth of skill and knowledge,' and 'conscientious nature' (2008) and 'discerning advice' and as 'one of the top picks at the more junior end of the market"' (2007). Recommended in the Legal 500 (Commercial Arbitration) as 'very good at drafting with attention to detail' (2009). He also has specific expertise in disputes arising in, but not limited to, the banking and finance, energy and natural resources, pharmaceutical and IT industries (including online gaming). Orlando has significant experience in large-scale litigation (see Woodside, Box Clever and Sumitomo), but he is equally comfortable working unled on smaller cases.

He is entered on Dubai International Finance Centre (DIFC) Courts Register of Practitioners.
