International Litigation & Transnational Cooperation

Resolving conflicts when borders complicate everything. We handle disputes and legal cooperation across jurisdictions, with strategy and international coordination.

Overview

How we can help you.

When a conflict involves more than one country, the question is no longer just “who is right” but “where, how and under which law the case will be decided”. Those choices completely change the outcome.

We coordinate the procedural strategy across jurisdictions, from determining the competent forum to the recognition and enforcement of foreign decisions.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions.

Is a Brazilian judgment valid in France?+

Not automatically. It must go through a recognition procedure (exequatur). We assess feasibility and conduct the process.

What is the competent forum and why does it matter?+

It is the determination of which country and court will decide the case. This choice affects deadlines, costs, applicable law and the outcome.

Do you handle arbitration?+

Yes. We advise on drafting arbitration clauses and on following international arbitration proceedings.
