Frequently asked questions
What should I send for an initial discussion?
The contracts and their amendments, relevant correspondence, the identity and country of the parties and a chronology of the facts. Any notification received or known deadline should be mentioned at the first contact.
How is the competent body determined?
The firm examines the documents, the status of the parties and the framework of the dispute. The presence of an international element is not, in itself, enough to determine the competent body.
Can discussions be organised remotely?
The arrangements for discussions and the transmission of documents are agreed with the firm according to the needs of the case and the availability of those involved.
