Although our experience in a courtroom could be measured in thousands of hours, we find our work before entering a courtroom even more significant. First, we help you to find out whether litigation or arbitration in your case is the most efficient choice for you and whether the result pursued is worth your investment.

In order to help our clients to avoid disputes we develop strategies and draw up documents aimed at avoiding litigation. Where there is no room for an amicable solution, we recommend the most suitable means of commercial dispute resolution and the most effective strategy.

In disputes, we take only such tactical decisions which are necessary for achieving the goal and which are most effective – we think proactively about the client’s cost management. We represent clients in pre-trial bodies and in courts of all instances. We draft all documents required for litigation.
