Arbitration is the private justice arising from the will of parties that come from different jurisdictions or systems of law, but yet capable to conclude arbitration agreements in order to find that intersection between them, that necessary common ground, in order to reach an acceptable resolution in case of a dispute, observing in the same time the public order as provided by different national laws.
Arbitration is founded on the consent of the parties which recognize a tribunal or an arbitrator as being capable to solve a dispute and after the resolution is made, that the decision will be respected or if not, will be enforced.
We are focused on arbitration disputes related to the construction area, capable of undertaking a case from the initial claim phase, in front of the Dispute Adjudication Board (in FIDIC cases), all throughout the negotiation phase, as well as representing our clients in arbitration cases in front of Arbitral Tribunals from Bucharest, Paris or Vienna.
We are currently involved in several multi-million arbitration disputes between contractors and designers, situations which require complex knowledge of both fields: construction and arbitration.
We are successfully fighting for our clients’ rights in disputes against the Romanian National Company of Road Infrastructure Management (Compania Naţională de Administrare a Infrastructurii Rutiere S.A.- C.N.A.I.R.) being involved in Public Procurement cases before National Council for Solving Complaints and Arbitration cases.
Our team of dedicated professionals can offer comprehensive advice to our clients on matters concerning trademarks registration both at a national level as well as international.
