International legal practice with a Ukrainian foundation

Dispute Resolution

Effective dispute resolution strategies with a focus on pre-trial settlement and consistent defence of the client’s position
Taking part in resolving our clients’ disputes, our foremost effort is to settle the conflicts out of court or arbitration, since litigation or arbitration can be time-consuming and costly. Therefore, most of the conflicts in which our lawyers were involved at an early stage were resolved through mutually beneficial agreements.However, over the years, we have also gained considerable experience in various litigation and arbitration cases both in Ukraine and abroad. This expertise allows us to effectively build and defend our client’s position.

Services for Dispute Resolution

Resolving disputes is not only about winning a case in court or arbitration. In many situations, the best outcome lies in preventing escalation and achieving a commercially sensible settlement at an early stage. Where our lawyers are involved from the outset, many disputes are resolved through negotiation and mutually acceptable solutions, avoiding unnecessary time, cost and disruption.

At the same time, we have substantial experience in litigation, arbitration and enforcement proceedings in Ukraine and across jurisdictions. This allows us to assess risk realistically, build a strong legal position and protect our clients’ interests effectively at every stage of the dispute.

Our Approach

Deep knowledge of law and the industry

Rabomizo works with the norms of international maritime law and national maritime codes of various jurisdictions, grounded in a deep understanding of shipping operations and the commercial realities of the industry.

Experience in dispute resolution in international jurisdictions

We have represented clients in London, Greece, Turkey, Ukraine, Switzerland, Oman and other jurisdictions.

Rapid response in crisis situations

We promptly engage in communication with the parties involved, prepare well-grounded responses and develop a defence and negotiation strategy at any stage of the process.

Understanding of shipping operations

Our solutions take into account not only legal aspects but also the practical side of a shipowner’s or operator’s business. Clients do not need to spend time explaining – we understand the complexity of maritime processes and provide full support.

About us

Rabomizo law firm advises businesses engaged in transport and international trade, operating where assets, goods and services are crossing borders and changing the legal regimes. We support our clients in structuring solid business agreements, managing the risks and making decisions within complex multi-jurisdictional frameworks.

If the claims, delays, sanctions, restrictions, or disputes arise, we develop and implement a legal strategy, representing clients across the jurisdictions and legal systems. Our work combines sector knowledge with a clear understanding of the international regulatory environment.

We do not propose standardised solutions. We analyse the risks, assess the legal and commercial exposure, and provide clear, commercially grounded advice in cross-border matters.
