Disputes, Litigation and Arbitration - Engagement of Our Law Firm
The Law Office Prnjavorac provides expert and effective assistance in resolving all types of disputes, whether it is court litigation or arbitration proceedings. Our team stands out with a unique approach that is primarily focused on the prevention of disputes and their peaceful resolution, which means that we always try to find an out-of-court solution whenever possible.
Prevention and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
Through proactive legal advice and the adjustment of contractual clauses and internal processes in our clients' businesses, we help reduce or completely eliminate the risk of lengthy and costly court litigation. This preventive approach is of particular importance in the complex and often slow judicial system of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Our goal is to help clients avoid unnecessary litigation whenever possible, whether through direct negotiations, mediation or other forms of alternative dispute resolution. We implement various prevention mechanisms, ranging from inserting precise clauses on the jurisdiction of the court or arbitration in contracts, to establishing internal procedures for the early resolution of potential disagreements within the client's company. In this way, we save our clients' time and resources and preserve their business relationships, while ensuring that their rights are fully protected.
Litigation Representation (Representation in Court Proceedings)
When a court proceeding becomes inevitable, our clients can rely on the experienced, dedicated and efficient litigation lawyers from our team. We have many years of experience in successfully representing clients before all competent courts and other bodies in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Our attorneys thoroughly prepare each case and are fully committed to providing the highest level of protection of the client's interests throughout the entire procedure. We represent individuals and legal entities in civil, commercial and administrative disputes, ensuring that each litigation is conducted professionally, responsibly and in the best interests of a client.
The types of court proceedings in which we provide representation include:
- Contractual disputes (e.g. due to non-fulfillment of contractual obligations or contract termination)
- Disputes for damages / damages claim (material and immaterial (pecuniary and non-pecuniary), contractual and non-contractual liability)
- Property disputes (ownership rights to real estate, land registry disputes, etc.)
- Commercial disputes (between business entities, disputes between founders or shareholders)
- Administrative disputes (refutation of decisions of public administration bodies, public institutions, etc.)
Arbitration
When arbitration is the most appropriate option or has been agreed upon in advance between the parties, our team provides top-tier representation in arbitration proceedings. We have experience in conducting arbitrations under various rules, and we are well versed in the specifics of the arbitration process. Whether it is a commercial dispute, an investment dispute, or some other complex legal dispute, our attorneys-at-law competently represent clients’ interests before arbitral tribunals. Arbitration is often a faster and more confidential route to dispute resolution, and our team ensures clients take full advantage of this form of dispute resolution.
Strategy and transparency
In any case, our approach involves careful planning of the dispute resolution strategy and open, transparent communication with a client. Our goal is not only to legally resolve a specific problem, but also to provide a client with a clear picture of the likely course of the proceedings in advance. We inform the client in detail about all stages of the dispute and clearly explain the various options, rights and obligations that may arise during the process. We also make every important procedural decision in close consultation with the client, to ensure that the chosen strategy fully meets his goals and interests. With such a comprehensive approach, we ensure that a client is always aware of the possible outcomes and well prepared for each decision.
Ultimately, the ultimate goal of our team is to achieve the best possible solution for our client in the shortest reasonable time, with minimal costs and risks. Whether a dispute is resolved amicably, in court, through arbitration or in the form of a notarial agreement with enforceable force/instrument, the Law Office Prnjavorac will invest maximum expertise, energy and dedication to protect the rights and interests of its clients.
