International law, when used in the civil courts, deals
mainly with disputes between either private individuals or corporations that
act between two or more nations. As our
world grows closer together through technology, it is becoming more and more
likely that civil claims can arise between entities or people from different
countries. The most common initial
dispute, if not already dealt with in the contract with the parties, would be
which country's court would be responsible for hearing the suit. This can be quite important, as the laws in
some countries may be solidly on one side, or the awards may be higher.
International law is complicated, meaning that specialized legal counsel is necessary to properly handle an international claim. Our international lawyers understand why it is important to understand how some countries relate to each other and how that will have an effect on your case's outcome.
