Defence of a client against a claim for non-pecuniary damage
ARROWS successfully represented ARRIVA TRANSPORT ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA s.r.o., one of the largest transport operators in Europe, in a long-running lawsuit for compensation for non-pecuniary damage in the amount of approximately CZK 1,000,000.
This challenging case, which involved the application of foreign substantive law outside the EU, was finally concluded in favour of our client, with the court rejecting the claimant's claim in full and the client achieving full success.
A significant role in this successful defence was played by our colleague Mgr. Oliver Uraz, LL.M., who focuses on litigation and insolvency law. Oliver led a team that provided comprehensive legal support throughout the litigation, and thanks to his expert reasoning, the client was able to not only defend against the defendant's claim, but also successfully pursue a claim for costs.
This case once again demonstrates the excellent litigation skills of our lawyers in complex cross-border cases, where our clients can rely on our professional approach and consistent representation even in challenging legal situations.
