With our experience in mediation, arbitration and before the civil courts, we can represent you in case of a dispute with one of your commercial partners or institute extraordinary proceedings, such as applications for safeguard orders or injunctions, seizures before judgment and other procedures.

Did you know
An injunction is an order of the Court that can be obtained to force your contractual partners to meet their obligations under the terms of a shareholders’ agreement, a non-compete clause or an exclusivity clause.
Intervention time is crucial in an extraordinary procedure, such as a request for a provisional injunction or safeguard order, to maximize your chances of success and ensure there is an opening for this type of remedy. That’s why it’s important that we’re informed from the very start of the dispute.
It is not possible to exclude contractual liability in cases of bodily harm.
