Representation in international courts
Offshore business is accompanied by a lot of benefits, and therefore enjoys stable popularity. But, unfortunately, it cannot be completely insured against unforeseen difficulties. Situations often arise when one of the parties completely refuses the opportunity to resolve the problem peacefully and the only way out remains - litigation. An offshore company has to defend its rights, which is especially unpleasant if unreasonable claims are made against it. As current trends prove, this is not uncommon today.
To resolve issues in court is brought in the country where the offshore company was registered. Of course, this complicates the task with a number of nuances, starting with territorial remoteness and ending with differences in the norms of legislation. That is why the company 'Finance Business Service' offers a new service - representation in international courts.
Process complexity
Dispute resolution in the offshore area is governed by the rule of territorial jurisdiction. Simply put, filing a claim is provided for at the place of legal registration of the defendant, i.e. it is necessary to apply to the court of Belize, Cyprus, Hong Kong, BVI, Holland or other foreign jurisdiction. However, this is only possible if, within the country where the company operates, for example, Ukraine or Russia, a case has been opened against it. Then the local court will send a request to the appropriate offshore and further proceedings will continue there.
The main difficulty in cases involving foreign companies is the inability to solve the problem on the spot. It is likely that not all owners of firms abroad have familiar lawyers who can be trusted with this case. It should be borne in mind that the process will not be based on the legislation of the home country, which is more or less familiar, but will be carried out in accordance with the legal norms of a particular jurisdiction, which may be fundamentally different. For example, British law has a number of fundamental differences from continental European law. In addition, international treaties are sometimes taken into account.
Given these complexities, representation in foreign courts is an extremely difficult task. There are a huge number of specific points that are familiar only to a practitioner competent in this field. Meanwhile, the final result may depend on any little thing, so it is desirable to minimize the risk.
In such conditions, it is difficult for the owner of the company to predict what to expect as a result of a court case, and professional help is indispensable.
