ARROWS International connects lawyers and partner firms across continents. Thanks to this, we know how to assist clients in resolving disputes in France, the USA, Africa, Asia, or the Middle East — including the enforcement of decisions, communication with local authorities, and coordination of the entire procedure.

We will assess legal and business risks, gather facts, secure evidence, and recommend the first steps. You will get a clear view of what is happening and what the best strategy is.

2) Proposal of procedural strategy

Settlement, lawsuit, counterclaim, arbitration? We will propose a course of action that is most advantageous for you — in terms of time, money, and reputation.

3) Representation in proceedings

We will take over full procedural responsibility. We prepare submissions, participate in hearings, negotiate, and lead the dispute to the end.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1) How much will it cost me? We always play with open cards. Before starting cooperation, you will receive a cost estimate, or we will agree on an hourly or task-based fee. Thanks to experience from hundreds of disputes, we can estimate their duration in advance.

2) How long will the dispute last? That depends on the complexity of the case and the workload of the local courts. A common commercial dispute in the Czech Republic can last 1–3 years. However, our priority is not to prolong proceedings – we utilize pre-litigation demand letters and effective procedural tools for the quickest possible conclusion. Foreign disputes are handled by the ARROWS law firm similarly.

3) Do I have to go to court personally? In most cases, no. Based on a power of attorney, we will represent you at all hearings. Your presence is usually required only if the court orders your interrogation.

4) Can you enforce money even from a company outside the EU? Yes. Thanks to the ARROWS International network, we collaborate with vetted lawyers worldwide. We know how to ensure the recognition of a Czech judgment abroad or initiate proceedings directly in the given country.
