Dispute Resolution
Dispute resolution
We advise and represent clients in resolving complex disputes in courts and arbitration in Russia and internationally, including cases involving parallel proceedings in several forums and countries.
 
We protect our clients at all stages of the transaction and dispute cycle, from the entry into the contract (including selecting the optimum forum for resolution of disputes and advising on jurisdiction and arbitration clauses) to the preparation of claims and the enforcement of court judgments and arbitral awards in Russia and other jurisdictions.
 

We work with a wide pool of local counsel in Austria, Belarus, Czech Republic, China and Hong Kong SAR, Cyprus, England and Wales, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Sweden, the USA (New York, California, Hawaii), Uzbekistan and other jurisdictions.

The Voskhod team has extensive experience in handling arbitrations in the leading Russian and foreign arbitration institutions. We regularly conduct arbitration proceedings under the rules of the LCIA, SCC, ICSID, ICAC at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation and UNCITRAL.

We also conduct litigation in the commercial courts and courts of general jurisdiction in Moscow and other regions of Russia.
