FBK Legal Defends its Client against Dishonest Contractor

FBK Legal has defended JSC IMP-Logistika against the claim related to a software development agreement.

The client’s contractors have filed a claim to collect payment for the work that they have not completed. FBK Legal lawyers have filed a counterclaim which has been partially upheld, while the claim from the dishonest contractor has been fully dismissed in the court of first instance. Both decisions have been confirmed in the court of appeal and the court of cassation. ?

“The proceedings have not been easy and lasted for over a year in all instances. We have managed to prove that it is the contractor who has not fulfilled the agreement, therefore, it does not have the right to require payment and, moreover, it should pay a significant penalty to our client and cover court fees,” says Alexander Ermolenko, Partner at FBK Legal.?
