Domestic Arbitration

As far as domestic arbitration, conducted pursuant to Federal Law No. 382-FZ dated 29 December 2015 ("Arbitration Act"), is concerned, we provide similar range of services as the one concerning international commercial arbitration.

In particular, our services in the field of domestic arbitration include the following:

» Advising clients on the prospects of potential or already existing proceedings (free of charge);
» Representing clients before domestic arbitral tribunals constituted either under the rules of permanent arbitration institutions in the terminology of the Arbitration Act (for instance, under the Rules of Domestic Arbitration of the International Commercial Arbitration Court at the RF Chamber of Commerce and Industry) or on ad hoc basis;
» Representing clients before Russian courts in cases where an injunctive relief related to domestic arbitration is sought;
» Representing clients before Russian courts exercising supporting and/or supervising powers with regard to domestic arbitration (e.g., in cases concerning the constitution of arbitral tribunal, challenge of domestic arbitrators, termination of their mandate, challenge of tribunals' partial awards on jurisdiction, tribunals' requests to state courts on evidence-gathering);
» Representing clients before Russian courts in set aside proceedings;
» Representing clients before Russian courts in proceedings as regards recognition and enforcement of domestic arbitral awards (in the terminology of Russian laws - in the proceedings on the issuance of writs of execution).

One of the important benefits for our clients lies in the fact that we analyze the probability of success of a client's case without any payment obligations on the client's part, i.e. free of charge. The analysis, which we communicate to a client in writing, includes an assessment of success as a percentage and brief grounds for such a conclusion.

Being not a large company, we are focused on providing high-quality specialized services for a reasonable price. We strive to find financial solutions benefiting both clients and lawyers which take into account the financial capacity of our clients.

Very generally, while representing a client in domestic arbitration we undertake the following activities (particularities of a case should, of course, be taken into account):

» Gathering information and documents relating to the existing or potential dispute from a client;
» Analysis of the proceedings prospects and making the client familiar with them in writing (prior to concluding of any contract with the client, i.e. free of charge). The analysis of prospects includes an assessment of the client's success chances, as we believe they are, and a brief description of the grounds the analysis is based upon with references to applicable laws;
» Preparation of an application/request to competent authorities (courts) for an injunctive relief (if necessary), depending on the nature of the dispute and the procedural status of the client;
» Analysis of potential arbitrators (nominees), taking into account their reputation and authority, available experience of case-management, professional opinions as expressed in legal literature and possible conflict of interest; agreeing upon the arbitrator (nominee) with the client;
» Analysis of an arbitrator appointed (nominated) by the adverse party, filing a challenge to an arbitrator (if necessary), if the latter is not successful - filing the challenge with a competent Russian court, filing a request(s) on the assistance in composition of a tribunal with a competent Russian court (in the last two instances - unless the parties to a domestic arbitration, administered by a permanent arbitration institution, expressly excluded such a recourse to Russian courts);
» Working with evidence: analysis of available and searching for new one, assessment as to whether witness or expert statements should/may be filed, analysis of evidence provided by the adverse party, filing applications seeking Russian courts' assistance in evidence-gathering to an arbitral tribunal (in the last instance - apart from ad hoc arbitrations);
» Preparation of all the required pleadings (motions, applications, requests, etc.), including those related to the document production and costs;
» Representation of the client at oral hearings (if conducted);
» Preparation of post-hearing submissions (if ordered by the tribunal).
