International Construction Arbitration: Protecting the Client’s Interests in an Amount Exceeding EUR 30 Million
REVERA provided comprehensive legal support to a major company implementing turnkey projects in the mining and metallurgical as well as mining industries in the CIS and beyond, within the framework of a dispute before the International Arbitration Court at the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IAC at the BCCI) against a major customer, a resident of Uzbekistan.
A project with an implementation value exceeding EUR 300 million became the subject of a dispute in an amount exceeding EUR 30 million. The case was considered under Uzbek law, while the seat of arbitration was Minsk, which immediately created a number of cross-border and conflict-of-laws challenges.
