Despite the fact that commercial law is a field of legal expertise that deals with the sale of goods and
services, as well as the related rights of franchisees and intellectual property, corporate law deals with
the establishment of companies, the rights of shareholders, as well as mergers, acquisitions and
company assets. Both of these are areas of law that involve complexities and challenges that companies
can face from time to time. As laws change and businesses adapt, firms need a comprehensive set of
robust legal services to avoid legal violations and protect their operations.
Our legal team has extensive experience in establishing companies, performing all necessary registration
activities, changing company statuses, providing ongoing legal advice services to our clients and
transferring shares and assets. Our services include: consulting on privatization procedures, preparation
of necessary documentation and contracts, obtaining franchises and litigation for all types of
commercial matters. Regardless of the issue, we are dedicated to providing ongoing support to both
national and international clients in corporate and commercial matters. In addition, our team members
have been part of the legal drafting processes of relevant corporate and commercial law legislation,
which serves to ensure direct knowledge and authentic interpretation of legal provisions.

Civil law is a term that refers to a set of laws that deal with the private interaction of citizens. The scope
of civil law matters includes family matters such as marriage, divorce, alimony, adoption and
inheritance, as well as other matters such as contracts.
Through our experienced legal team, we provide support to our clients in all types of civil law matters.
Our legal services cover all cases, both in administrative bodies and in courts. Our prices are always

Personal data, also referred to as personal information, is any type of information relating to an
identified or identifiable person. This data can consist of almost any type of information, from names
and dates of birth to bank details, shopping habits, health data, internet browsing and lifestyle choices.
The controller/processor of your personal data is legally bound to use it only for certain purposes
approved by the individual, without disclosing such data to other parties. This type of protection is
called personal data protection.
The importance of data protection law continues to grow and raises issues of fundamental importance
to individuals, businesses and government institutions. We assist our clients in complying with the new
Kosovo Law on Personal Data Protection that has been transposed by the EUs General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR). This new regulation has revolutionized the protection of personal data and requires
intensive compliance efforts from data processors. Our team ensures that the personal data held by
clients is protected and we support our clients in the selection and preparation of regulations for
technical and organizational safeguards for the protection of personal data as well as in the
management of consequences in cases of breaches of personal data. In addition, through our specialized
lawyers, we offer advice and training to both private companies and public authorities. Based on our
team's professional qualifications and hands-on approach to dealing with issues related to personal data
protection legislation, your data compliance will be safe in our hands.

Arbitration is a type of alternative dispute resolution that operates outside the judicial system of justice
and that serves to resolve disputes between two or more parties. Arbitrations can be ad hoc, where the
parties agree among themselves on the rules of procedure, or administered through the organization of
arbitration, where the rules of arbitration are defined. Arbitration decisions are made by an arbitrator or
panel of arbitrators, where arbitrators have roles similar to judges. These decisions are binding and
enforceable, as provided by law.
Through our experienced legal team, we provide support to our clients in all types of arbitration cases,
including but not limited to: property issues, breach of contract, etc. Our arbitration services are
available nationally and internationally to help you save valuable time and money that you would
otherwise spend on lengthy legal proceedings in the courts. By using our services, you are assured that
we will provide you with the best legal advice to suit your arbitration needs.

Compensation claims are requests for financial payments made by individuals or organizations due to
physical, psychological and/or material damage caused by individuals, organizations or other events that
cause damage. Compensation claims cover the damage done to the injured party, whether this damage
is caused intentionally or accidentally. Such situations usually arise as a result of accidents at work or
while driving, but they can also cover a wide variety of cases, such as intentional damages in criminal
cases or those due to defamatory statements in the media.
Whatever your situation, our team of specialist lawyers will take the time to carefully analyze each case
on its merits. We will advise you on the best course of action, whether through mediation, arbitration or
court proceedings. We will help you resolve your claims, whether they are related to material or non-
material damages, or both.

Competition law is the area of legislation that exists to maintain fair market competition by regulating
anti-competitive practices applied by companies. These may include the formation of monopolies and
price fixing, as well as various other forms of collusion that distort the market price. These practices
prevent other companies from entering the market, as well as harming the consumer by driving higher
prices, reducing product and service quality, and discouraging innovation and new investment.
Our legal team can provide advice on all aspects of breaching competition law. We represent our clients
in all related proceedings, be they administrative, civil or criminal. We work with clients in all aspects,
starting from the earliest stages of an agreement to identify, analyze and minimize potential or actual
competition infringements. A full risk assessment is carried out for any process necessary to ensure full
compliance or to mitigate the potential consequences that may arise as a result of instances of breach.
Through our expertise, we can assist your organization in avoiding conflict situations with competition
legislation, as well as challenging unfair competitors that may harm your financial interests.

Consumer protection is the act of protecting consumers when purchasing goods and services and
protecting the general public from unfair practices by companies. The cases of violation of consumer
rights vary, but basically goods and services must be provided according to the terms and price offered,
and with the relevant guarantees that are respected. What is offered for sale cannot contain false
information about what the product or service contains, nor false information about its efficacy. It is
equally important that the products are genuine and not counterfeit, which is a growing concern in
developing markets where enforcement is often lax. Something like this hurts the consumer where
usually a poorer product than expected is delivered.

Our team provides advice and support to clients regarding consumer rights provided for in the law on
administrative and judicial protection. This includes, but is not limited to: unfair trade practices,
deceptive trade acts, omissions, sale of counterfeit products, aggressive trade practices, mislabeling of
products, misrepresentation of product prices, distance and off-premises contracts, warranty of
products, distance trading of financial services, unfair contract terms, correction and security quality of
products and services. We aim to serve you customers and ensure that their consumer rights are
protected, whatever the case may be.

All cases of violations of the criminal code are handled in court, where legal representation by a lawyer
is required for serious cases.
Our defense lawyers are supportive and have extensive experience in criminal proceedings in Kosovo.
Our team provides support throughout criminal proceedings and are committed to ensuring quality and
excellence for our clients. We protect your rights as a defendant and make sure you have the best

case in other countries.

Due diligence refers to the process of evaluating the legal regulatory framework, as well as evaluating
the financial condition of the subject under consideration for investment. In cases where the investor
wants to finance a business venture in Kosovo, then that investor will benefit from the legal evaluation
of the planned operation. What is more important, if an investor wants to invest in part or all of the
local company, then it is important to do detailed checks on the financial stability and history of the
business as well as its owners.
We offer a full package of legal services to any potential national or international investor, including
market research, financial appraisals and background checks. We help tailor solutions for specific areas
and clients through our network of associates who are experts in various industries. Our team addresses
the legal, regulatory, tax and commercial challenges facing every potential investor to protect your
funds.

Intellectual property means ownership in a creative work, meaning intangible or non-physical property.
This can range from works of art, literature, films and music to inventions, software, designs and
research. Intellectual property is legally protected by copyright, patents, trademarks and trade secrets.
However, unscrupulous competitors often try to achieve financial gain by using partial or complete
components of the intellectual creations of other individuals or organizations. This constitutes a type of

intellectual theft in cases where the original creators have neither given permission nor benefited
financially from the use of their intellectual property.
Intellectual property has become one of the most critical legal areas as companies continue to expand
and protect their technologies, brands, products, data and services across the globe. This challenge is
particularly evident in less developed countries, where intellectual property infringements are common
in the fields of clothing, textiles, films, music and software. Moreover, counterfeit products are another
growing concern affecting intellectual property rights, harming not only the original brand firm but also
its consumers.
Our experienced lawyers provide both commercial litigation-related advice and strategic advice to a
wide range of intellectual property sectors to deal with these challenges. This includes registering
trademarks, patents and industrial designs on behalf of our domestic and international clients, both in
Kosovo and abroad. We strive to protect our clients from infringements of intellectual property, as well
as to obtain financial compensation from infringements wherever possible.

Labor rights and pensions are two related concepts. Labor rights are those rights related to employees
and their employers in the performance of their obligations as provided for in labor legislation. Pensions
are payments earned by workers on retirement as a result of age or health reasons, which are related to
their salary contributions deposited in their respective pension funds while they were in active
employment. Labor rights can be violated by employers in terms of working hours, conditions, pay,
holidays or other rights. This can also have a direct negative impact on subsequent pension payments if
employers violate labor rights or make unfair exclusions.
Our legal team offers a full range of services such as the preparation of documents, the submission of
objections and appeals in all cases related to employment rights and pensions. We also work closely
with health and safety experts as well as doctors who can analyze specific cases to support
compensation claims, both in the public and private sectors. We can also assist with claims for payment
of pensions from abroad if you have spent time in employment there, as well as receiving pensions from
countries of the former Yugoslavia. Our lawyers are experienced in employment litigation and are ready
to assist you before administrative and judicial bodies, whether it may be related to employment rights
or pension claims.

Mediation differs from arbitration in that any agreement reached between two or more disputing
parties, the mediators have no power to impose a settlement. Mediators can usually enable a solution
to be found in a much shorter time than arbitration or litigation, where the time and money invested in
such processes is much lower. Mediation is of great advantage in cases where the disputing parties are
willing to reach an agreement.

Through our licensed and experienced mediators, we offer mediation services for various civil matters,
including the following: property disputes, commercial law, family law, labor relations, contractual
relations, inheritance, bankruptcy proceedings and administrative matters. Our mediation services
enable disputing parties to reach amicable resolutions confidentially without arbitration or costly court
proceedings.

Public procurement is the process of purchasing services, supplies and works by government institutions
and state enterprises through public funds. The procurement process is defined through specific laws
and regulations, and there are specific procedures for awarding contracts, as well as challenging the
award of those contracts. Public procurement is a source of major business opportunities for national
and international companies, therefore it is a very competitive sector in which to operate.
Our legal members have extensive experience in procurement cases and are proven to win cases in
Kosovo. We offer high-quality legal services to our clients to ensure compliance with the legality of
procurement processes. We have successful experience in judicial processes in the Procurement Review
Body in Kosovo. We regularly represent clients in this administrative court for procurement cases and
help clients challenge tender processes that do not meet legal criteria. We also advise corporate clients
and government bodies on the application and interpretation of procurement laws and related
administrative actions. In the event that the procurement process takes place in another country, we
have access to a network of specialist lawyers abroad who can represent your interests in other
jurisdictions.

Sports disputes arise when the losing individual or team disagrees with the outcome of the competitive
sporting event. Such a situation can arise through various factors, including allegations of cheating or
doping, or natural and man-made disturbances in the event, as well as allegations of inappropriate
decisions made by judges and arbitrators. Considering the prestige and prize winnings that accompany
sporting events, as well as media advertising, large sums of money are at stake when it comes to
winning or losing in sporting events.
Our sports lawyers and consultants provide legal services to governing bodies, clubs, teams, players,
agents and other commercial activities that are related to sport. We work in a number of different
sports. We provide expert advice on employment contracts with teams and individual athletes,
disciplinary matters and matters related to employers and sports governing bodies, reputation
management, sponsorship, marketing and advertising for commercial partners and events. In addition,
we also provide litigation services in arbitration and litigation for sports results that are in dispute.

Taxes and customs fees are payments determined by the state to provide funds for the country's annual
budget. These present a complex framework of laws and regulations that are a challenge for any
company to navigate. With a constantly evolving tax and customs environment, it is difficult to keep up
with the latest changes affecting your business. Without stable and reliable guidance from specialists in
this field, it is easy for a company to make mistakes in tax and customs calculations, thus resulting in
fines from inspectors.
Fortunately, our specialized legal team is at your disposal and has long experience and deep knowledge
of Kosovo's tax and customs system. We offer tax efficient business solutions to our clients, which
means we also help you to avoid under- or over-paying your government obligations. Our service
includes advice on all types of charges, such as VAT, corporation tax, personal income tax and customs
duties.
In addition, we also provide support in tax litigation and dispute resolution on behalf of our clients
involved in tax and customs disputes in the responsible bodies, both administrative and judicial. Our
team also provides advice on all tax and regulatory aspects related to international trade (imports and
exports), particularly customs duty and excise. In particular, our service extends to alternative dispute
resolution procedures where we act on behalf of taxpayers by filing objections, appeals and reviewing
applications against tax assessments when such cases arise.
