Dispute Resolution

The Atanasković I Božović office is particularly proud of the dispute resolution department. Since its inception, this team has been recognized, both domestically and internationally, as a top expert who approaches each client and subject in a dedicated and thorough manner.

 

Each case is analyzed in detail by partners and specially selected attorneys specializing in a particular subject matter and branch of law. After legal and factual analysis, our advice is directed primarily at avoiding disputes, that is, a peaceful and consensual solution, bearing in mind the specifics of the domestic judicial system.

However, if a peaceful solution is not possible, our team is highly qualified to represent the court, and with extensive experience and full understanding of local circumstances, we prepare and deliberately undertake morale with the aim of achieving effective and rapid results.
