Dallas litigator Jamil Alibhai went back to the basics of due process, jurisdiction and contract language to win a case that helped his client, a gold-mining company, escape a $48 million judgment from Mexico.

“The law in the United States will always ensure due process, even when someone is trying to end-run it,” said Alibhai, a shareholder in Munsch Hardt Kopf & Harr. “Basic fundamental rights that companies have in litigation should be protected, and a Texas court will protect it.”
