Moscow City Arbitrazh Court enforced the decision of the ICAC at the RF CCI (MKAS) for the benefit of our Client.

Our Client is the largest agricultural enterprise in the Tver region. PB Legal team has successfully helped our Client to recover from an unconscientious counterparty the amount of unearned advance payment under the contract, penalties and costs of arbitral proceedings in the ICAC at the RF CCI. To date, we have successfully completed the case and enforced the ICAC award.

The complexity of the dispute was precisely at the exequatur stage: PB Legal team managed to elaborate a strategy that allowed us to fully satisfy our Сlient's claims. The Moscow City Arbitrazh Court ordered to issue a writ of execution and recovered from the opponents the full amount of the penalty without reducing it.

Alan Bayramkulov, Konstantin Galin, Igor Startsev and Yulia Isakova worked on the project.

At the claim of a foreign company from an "unfriendly" jurisdiction, the Russian Federal Service for Intellectual Property cancelled the trademark of our Client because it contradicted another trademark with an earlier priority.

At the claim of a foreign company from an "unfriendly" jurisdiction, the Russian Federal Service for Intellectual Property cancelled the trademark of our Client because it contradicted another trademark with an earlier priority. The foreign company also filed complaints for recovery of damages from the companies that had used the Сlient's cancelled trademark.

Our Сlient is Denis Simachev, a famous Russian fashion designer, artist and restaurateur. PB Legal team elaborated a strategy to protect his brand rights. As part of the implementation of this strategy, we filed an opposition with the Russian Federal Service for Intellectual Property regarding the granting of legal protection to the trademark of a foreign company.

Alan Bayramkulov prepared an expert legal opinion on Russian intellectual property law issues, which supported the necessity of cancellation of a foreign company's trademark. This expert opinion became the key to the dispute: on its basis, the Russian Federal Service for Intellectual Property cancelled the trademark of the foreign company, which allowed our Client to retain his rights to the brand.

Cancellation of the opponents' trademark will allow the Client to use his brand in creative and commercial activities.

Alan Bayramkulov and Pavel Chistyakov worked on the project.

An appeal in the interests of a creditor (a significant construction company) against a judgment on a claim by an affiliated person against a bankrupt.

Our client is a major construction company that is a creditor in the bankruptcy case of a manufacturing company. In bankruptcy proceedings, the debtor's subsidiary filed claims for more than RUB 700 million.
An action for invalidity of transactions was brought by a minority shareholder of a subsidiary company on its behalf.

Our client is a major construction company that is a creditor in the bankruptcy case of a manufacturing company. In bankruptcy proceedings, the debtor's subsidiary filed claims for more than RUB 700 million.

An action for invalidity of transactions was brought by a minority shareholder of a subsidiary company on its behalf. The plaintiff claimed that the chain of commerce was a cover for another trade that had been made without the necessary corporate approval and was aimed at withdrawal of the company's assets. In court, the debtor agreed with the plaintiff's position, as a result of which the transactions were declared invalid.

The client, as a creditor of the debtor, appealed a judgment declaring the transactions invalid. As part of the case, we analyzed the corporate and commercial relationships between the debtor, its subsidiary, the plaintiff, and other members of their class. As a result of a detailed analysis, we developed a legal opinion that disclosed the nature of the transactions between the class members. The pattern we identified led us to conclude that the funds transferred under the contested transactions remained under the control of the debtor's subsidiary and that the transactions caused it no harm. We also revealed that the contested transactions were aimed at including a creditor "friendly" to the debtor in the bankruptcy case. In addition, we substantiated in detail that the plaintiff had missed the statute of limitations.
