The judgment came through. German commercial court, English High Court, Lithuanian court — wherever the case was heard, your side won. The Belarusian debtor has money sitting in Belarus. The question now is whether that piece of paper does anything in Minsk. It can — but not by itself. A foreign court judgment carries no […]
The arbitration clause is the paragraph everyone skips at signing and everyone needs when something breaks. By the time you’re reading it carefully, the chance to fix it has passed. With a Belarusian counterparty, the dispute resolution clause shapes almost everything downstream: which forum has authority, what rules apply, where the seat sits, whose law […]
You won the arbitration. Months of hearings, written submissions, and legal costs — and the tribunal ruled your way. The award exists on paper. The Belarusian counterparty knows it. And nothing has moved. Getting paid is a different fight entirely. Belarus does recognise foreign arbitral awards — but turning that recognition into actual money involves […]
The contract was signed. Goods were delivered, services rendered, money lent. And then — silence. Payment deadlines passed, calls went unanswered, and the emails from your Belarusian partner became increasingly vague. Now you’re sitting on an unpaid invoice and wondering whether there’s anything you can actually do from abroad. The short answer is yes. Belarus […]
Most companies don’t think much about changing a director until they have to. Then they find out the hard way that getting it wrong — even slightly — can leave the business stuck in an awkward gap: the old director still legally in charge, the new one unable to sign anything or move money. We’ve […]

Registering a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a vital step when starting a business. For many entrepreneurs, an LLC is the optimal organizational form: it combines limited liability for founders, a relatively simple management structure, and a wide range of potential activities. However, the path to obtaining a registration certificate is not always smooth. Entrepreneurs […]
Registering a limited liability company is an important step in starting a business, but in practice, it is only the beginning of the organizational journey. After receiving the registration documents, owners and the director face a whole range of mandatory and practical questions: what actions need to be taken first, which procedures are mandatory, and […]
Share capital (charter capital) is one of the key elements of the corporate structure of any commercial organization. It not only reflects the financial capacity of the company at the time of its establishment but also serves as a guarantee of the interests of creditors and counterparties. However, from the moment the business is registered, […]
Liquidation of an LLC (limited liability companies) in the presence of debts is one of the most complex and delicate procedures in corporate practice. Unlike “net” liquidation, when the company has no obligations to counterparties, the state budget or employees, the presence of outstanding liabilities significantly limits the choice of available mechanisms for the termination […]
A public offer agreement is one of the most widely used legal instruments in modern commercial practice, especially in the field of online services, electronic commerce, service provision, and interaction with mass consumers. Through a public offer, companies formalize the terms of interaction with clients, minimize legal risks, and ensure predictability of contractual relations without […]
Reorganization in the form of transformation is one of the most in-demand and, at the same time, legally delicate ways of changing a business without terminating its activities.
