Legal support of international commercial disputes, arbitration, litigation, asset recovery, enforcement of foreign court and arbitration decisions and protection of international business
— About practice
An international commercial dispute can affect a company's value, investment attractiveness, access to financing, relations with shareholders and the possibility of further business development.
Therefore, an effective dispute resolution strategy begins long before a claim is filed. It includes the choice of jurisdiction, analysis of asset protection mechanisms, assessment of commercial consequences and planning for the implementation of a future decision.
Erich Rath assists international corporations, investment funds, family offices, banks and industrial groups in cross-border commercial disputes, combining litigation strategy, international arbitration and corporate asset protection.
