Conflict Resolution and Legal Disputes in Georgia

Conflict Resolution and Legal Disputes in Georgia

Unfortunately, conflicts are an inseparable part of life. They can arise in various areas, and it is not always possible to resolve them independently. In such situations, it becomes necessary to seek the help of a professional lawyer, and sometimes resort to legal action. This issue is particularly challenging for expats living in another country due to the lack of understanding of local legislation and court procedures. JUST Advisors team offers professional legal services based on years of experience, dedicated to protecting your rights and interests at every stage.

Comprehensive Approach to Family Disputes

Family disputes in JUST Advisors' practice involve cases related to divorce, property division (both in Georgia and abroad), alimony claims, and determining children's living arrangements. Often, parties in such disputes are citizens of different countries, with one of them living outside Georgia. Family disputes often transcend national legislation, requiring consideration of international standards. In one of our recent cases, through the efforts of our lawyers, a child was returned to the mother. The strategy was based on the Convention on the Rights of the Child (the child, who held dual citizenship, was taken by their Georgian father from Russia). The case went through all three instances, and the court's decision ensured that the child was returned to the mother.

Debt Recovery

Debt recovery disputes, which involve contracts related to supply, transportation, and service provision, require prompt and organized approaches. The priority here is securing a claim, which initially ensures a strong position and the actual enforcement of a court decision. In our practice, such disputes often arise between companies in different jurisdictions, with their legal positions based on international private law norms. In cases related to debt recovery, the lawyers at JUST Advisors always begin with a comprehensive analysis of the situation, studying documents (in Georgian, English, and Russian), assessing the debtor’s ability to pay and the prospects of the dispute, and agreeing on an enforcement strategy with the client to ensure the execution of court decisions. One area of special interest in such cases is the enforcement of court decisions in favor of a foreign company.

Protection of Investor Rights in the Construction Sector

Conflicts with construction companies, such as project delays or poor-quality work, are common problems in Georgia amidst the investment and construction boom. In the absence of specific legislation protecting investor interests, we find ways to resolve conflicts both in and out of court. JUST Advisors has had successful cases involving the early termination of purchase agreements and the return of funds, fines related to delayed construction, recognition of property rights over apartments, and the removal of construction tax liens on apartments owned by investors.

Labor Disputes

JUST Advisors has extensive experience in resolving labor conflicts, including protecting the interests of parties in cases related to job reinstatement and compensation payments. Labor disputes are often more personal, so we strive to resolve them outside of court, including using mediation methods.

Disputes Related to Business Reputation Protection

Business reputation is an asset that can easily be lost and is hard to restore. Incorrect information on social media platforms can spread quickly, causing reputational and financial harm to businesses: loss of trust, damages, and lost/unearned income.

The lawyers at JUST Advisors assist companies in protecting their reputation at all levels. We handle court disputes and organize reasonable information support in partnership with the content agency Chemimedia. Our comprehensive approach allows us to simultaneously resolve disputes and minimize their effects in the informational space.

Tax Disputes

JUST Advisors successfully defends clients – both companies and individual entrepreneurs – in disputes with tax authorities. Our company’s tax and litigation lawyers represent taxpayers’ interests from the beginning of tax audits to the enforcement of court decisions.

Disputes Related to Migration Issues

Migration-related disputes are another important area of our practice. Every migration case – whether it concerns temporary residence permits, citizenship, or humanitarian status (refugee status) – does not always end successfully. Our migration lawyers, in collaboration with litigation attorneys, successfully appeal refusals in court instances.
