Litigation and arbitration law

With Rödl & Partner, you have found a reliable partner with strong expertise in litigation in Kazakhstan at your side. We develop comprehensive individual solutions for you and help you to obtain justice!

Rödl & Partner professionally assists our clients in disputes and conflict resolution.

Each company has its own legal personality. Disagreements among shareholders, as well as other internal company conflicts, can often not be settled by negotiation. In this case, the parties must turn to mediation services in the courts. In order to protect one's rights, it is important to have an advisor who knows Kazakh substantive and procedural law, along with measures of interim relief.

Arbitration clauses are often agreed in foreign trade contracts. Arbitration decisions are recognised in Kazakhstan and enforced according to general enforcement rules. Decisions of foreign courts are only recognised if conventions on the mutual recognition and enforcement of court decisions provide for this.

OUR INTERDISCIPLINARY SOLUTION TO YOUR CONFLICT

Our multidisciplinary approach to litigation law is of great help in particular in disputes:

Disputes under company law (disqualification actions, severance payments, disputes over defects in resolutions, etc.)
Disputes in connection with company acquisitions
Problems in distribution law (e.g. commercial agents, franchising, authorised dealers)
International proceedings
Enforcement of claims in foreign trade
Banking law issues, e.g. in connection with securities
Industrial property disputes (e.g. trademark, patent and copyright law, competition law)
Disputes under cartel law and public procurement law
Problems in connection with insolvency

Particularly during a company crisis, there is a lot of conflict material where Rödl & Partner's experience in representing creditors and debtors has a positive effect on conflict resolution.

More and more cases of conflict under commercial law also have a connection to European legal systems. Here we create added value for our clients through Rödl & Partner's internationality, as we also offer advice and support in conflict cases together with our colleagues worldwide from a single source. Our colleagues from Rödl & Partner offices worldwide have many years of experience in litigation law, in some cases over 30 years, in the field of international arbitration.

Our German and Kazakh colleagues with many years of experience in complex civil proceedings are deployed depending on the focus of the dispute. The team includes colleagues with business training who develop an optimal solution together with tax advisors and other specialists in the settlement of disputes before Kazakh courts. We also advise our clients on suitable arbitration and jurisdiction clauses when drafting contracts, including when agreeing on a place of arbitration at the Court of Arbitration at the International Financial Centre Astana.
