Ekaterina Gadetskaya, lawyer of Interlegal, held workshops at the National University “Odessa Law Academy” and the Odessa National Maritime University, with two lectures: “Five mistakes in conclusion of the international contracts” and “Peculiarities of maritime and commercial arbitration”.

 

During her first lecture, the expert of Interlegal highlighted the contract provisions usually being ignored by the parties until the dispute arises. Later, when the lawyers are engaged for defense of interests, these provisions impede or make impossible legal defense and cause significant expenses. Special attention was drawn to choice of substantial law and language of contract, wording of force majeure and arbitration clauses, inspection of counteragent’s status and authority and attentiveness to conduction of payments under the contract.

 

In her second lecture, Ekaterina Gadetskaya narrated about the dispute resolution procedures at the most popular international arbitrations in shipping and international trade - LMAA, FOSFA, GAFTA, with hot case studies which awoke strong interest among the students.

 

The issue of arbitration award recognition and enforcement in Ukraine and abroad also aroused vivid discussion.
