Litigation and Arbitration

Are you in a dispute with a business partner, supplier, customer, or shareholder and need to choose the right strategy fast? In disputes, it is rarely only about “who is right”—time, evidence, reputation, cash flow, and enforceability often matter just as much. Sometimes robust litigation is the most effective route; in other cases, well-prepared negotiations, mediation, or arbitration deliver the better outcome.

PROXIMA LEGAL supports you from dispute prevention and the pre-action stage through representation before courts and arbitral tribunals—pragmatically, clearly, and with a focus on commercial results.

How we can support you

1) Dispute prevention and pre-litigation strategy

  • legal analysis of claims and weak points (early case assessment),
  • pre-action letters/notices, responses, and evidence strategy
  • settlement negotiations, settlement documentation, mediation

2) Representation in court proceedings

  • commercial and civil disputes (contract performance, damages, liability, unjust enrichment)
  • shareholder disputes and corporate governance disputes
  • real estate and construction disputes (defects, delays, variations, pricing, leases)
  • employment disputes (terminations, compensation, non-competes)

3) Arbitration and alternative dispute resolution (ADR)

  • preparing and conducting arbitration (including cross-border matters)
  • assessing and drafting arbitration clauses / jurisdiction strategy
  • strategies for fast out-of-court resolution (mediation, expert determination)

4) Injunctive relief, securing evidence, urgent protection

  • interim measures/injunctions, securing evidence, preventing irreversible harm
  • rapid “stabilisation” steps where immediate damage is at risk

5) Enforcement and debt recovery

  • debt recovery and enforcement of secured claims
  • enforcement/execution proceedings, asset freezing and recovery strategy
  • coordinated recovery actions against non-performing counterparties (including multiple debtors/group structures)

Typical matters we handle

  • counterparty non-performance (deliveries/services), losses arise and you need swift remediation
  • supplier delays, variations/defects
  • shareholder disputes (management control, share transfers, breach of agreements)
  • urgent protection (injunctions, securing evidence, preventing asset transfers)
  • settlement negotiations requiring terms that are clear and enforceable

How the engagement works

  • Careful case assessment (objectives, risks, evidence, timeline, cost drivers)
  • Choosing procedural tactics (litigate vs. resolve—and when to switch)
  • Process management (filings, evidence, hearings, experts, negotiations)
  • Outcome enforcement (recovery/enforcement, post-dispute prevention)
