What you need to know in order to apply to court.

Under clause 19 of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation proceedings are based on controversy of the parties of the dispute. The parties will take the risk of their procedural action. It is important to understand that the arbitration court does not give consultations and does not carry out examinations or search of evidence without the appropriate petition. The court's verdict will be based on the evidence and documents submitted by the parties to the dispute. Often the parties do not submit all the necessary evidence to the court of first instance, which results in loosing this opportunity, because as a general rule all the evidence should be presented in the court of first instance.

For the parties it is very important who will represent their interests in the arbitration court. Sometimes the outcome of the dispute can affect not only the result of the litigation, but even the future of the company. We recommend you to use the following criteria to choose your representative:
  • Qualification;
  • Specialization;
  • Officially qualified as a lawyer;
  • Recommendations from former clients;
  • Cost of services.
For companies who face legal challenges for the first time we recommend to contact legal representatives who have been fully qualified as lawyers with the appropriate specialization. Under the clause 2 of the Federal Law "The Legal Activity and Legal Profession on the Russian Federation" in order to be fully qualified as a lawyer a person should have a law degree (higher juridical education) or a higher degree with specialization commission which makes the decision to award a status of s lawyer based on the applicant's examination result. There are agencies which advertise legal services, where the staff may not always be fully qualified, which should be even checked up on their education diplomas. The Central Administrative Board of the Ministry of Justice in Moscow keeps a register of all qualified lawyers.

The lawyer's status and proxy are determined by the Federal Law "The Legal Activity and Legal Profession on the Russian Federation" dated 31th May, 2002 № 63 -F3.

The lawyers specialized in rendering legal support to juridical person's interests usually are called corporate attorneys. The work might have a temporary or a permanent basis.

See below the article about the cooperation of corporate attorneys with juridical persons ("Na Stol Rukovoditelyu", №41, 2002, page 21).


The most efficient way for a medium or a big commercial company is to combine staff lawyer's or legal department's work with permanent services of a corporate attorney of a legal firm concluding an appropriate contract. The advantage is that in contradiction to staff lawyer's functions, the corporate attorney according to his status may represent and defend company's interests in tax and custom authorities, in arbitration proceedings, and also in criminal litigation concerning economic relations.

In this case the corporate attorney has the possibility to keep up with negative consequences beforehand, control and prevent them. The staff lawyer may concentrate on handling business document circulation. For firms with low volume of legal work it is expedient to turn to a corporate attorney or a legal firm fro constant professional services, thathelp to minimize the expenses, because the lawyers support will be written off.
