We strive to find the most creative and efficient solution to any dispute. We establish a relationship of mutual trust and respect with our clients.
Our team of lawyers can provide you with professional services in areas covering:
CIVIL LAW
Being the oldest segment of the law, the civil law (property law) is the prevalent segment of our activities and the widest law segment whose practice in terms of individual legal cases necessitates comprehensive application of a number of laws and legal institutes and their unified application in order to achieve purposefulness and success of related legal activities, with preventing any further negative effects.
Most common cases are those related to property – contract law, purchase and sale of goods, ownership, and easement, pledge right, construction right, compensation of damage, unjust enrichment, etc.
We aim at resolving disputes by negotiations, in order to be cost efficient and avoid spending resources on formal proceedings, with bearing in mind sensitivity of certain life situations.
