Litigation & Arbitration
A disciplined assessment of the claim, the evidence and the wider commercial interest.
A dispute calls for judgment about what to pursue, what to preserve and how to proceed. Adad advises on Qatar litigation, arbitration and negotiated resolution, considering the merits of the case alongside the investment, relationship or business affected.
We begin with the documents, the chronology and the client’s objective. Early analysis addresses jurisdiction, evidence, remedies, procedural requirements and recovery prospects. It also identifies decisions about ongoing performance, communications or approaching deadlines that require immediate attention.
Our work includes commercial, shareholder and joint venture disputes, project claims, payment and performance issues, settlement and enforcement. We examine weaknesses as closely as supporting evidence, giving the client a candid basis for deciding the appropriate response.
A judgment, award or settlement must be considered in terms of its practical effect. We assess implementation and enforcement alongside the proceedings, and negotiate resolution terms with the same care applied to the underlying claim.
THE DECISIONS THAT MATTER
The objective
Establish whether the priority is recovery, asset protection, control, continued performance or an agreed exit.
The case and the record
Test jurisdiction, evidence, contractual deadlines and remedies before selecting the procedural route.
Resolution that works
Consider the recoverability and implementation of an award, judgment or settlement alongside the merits of the claim.
