MORIS attorneys successfully defended the rights of a large wood processing enterprise with foreign investments in courts of all instances

Former lessors of our client attempted to unjustly recover a significant sum of money from the enterprise. To achieve this, they entered into fictitious contracts in order to use them against the enterprise.

Our attorneys joined the case at the stage of cassation appeal in the matter of recovery. The cassation court annulled adverse decisions for the client and remanded the case for reconsideration.

Subsequently, litigation process on this matter lasted for more than 2 years, and as a result, courts of all three instances, including the Supreme Court, fully upheld our claim of the contracts' invalidity. We managed to annul adverse decisions in the recovery case and obtain dismissal of the opponents' claim.

The case was handled by partner, Head of Dispute Resolution Practice Andriy Savchuk, Partner Oksana Kobryn, and Senior Associate Andriy Ivanov.
