Resolving a dispute in Monaco does not necessarily mean going to court. Depending on the nature of the dispute and the preferences of the parties involved, they may prefer to settle by compromise.

  1. The transactional route: negotiations with the assistance of a lawyer
    - Definition: Negotiation is a communication process in which several parties discuss specific proposals with a view to reaching a mutual agreement, on one or more issues. In this context, lawyers help and assist the parties to reach a mutual agreement.
    - Process: Lawyers facilitate discussion and propose solutions to help the parties resolve their conflict consensually. The process is confidential and informal.
    - Advantages: Negotiation is often faster and less costly than legal proceedings. It enables the parties to retain control over the outcome of the dispute.
  2. Arbitration: an alternative dispute resolution method
    - Definition: Arbitration is a process whereby disputes are decided by one or more arbitrators, whose decision is binding.
    - Process: The parties choose a neutral arbitrator and agree on the terms of the arbitration. The process may be more formal than a transactional one, but remains less restrictive than traditional legal proceedings.
    - Advantages: Arbitration offers a faster resolution of the dispute, with more flexible procedures than those before the courts. Arbitration decisions are generally easier to enforce internationally than court judgments.
  3. The judicial route: bringing a case before the Monegasque Courts
    - Process: More complex disputes, or those that cannot be resolved by compromise or arbitration, are brought before the courts. The process begins with the plaintiff bringing the case before the Courts or, in the criminal field, with the filing of a complaint.
    - Trial phases: During the trial, the parties present their arguments, evidence and testimony in written pleadings ("conclusions"). These pleadings are exchanged between the parties and handed over to the court, which will then hand down its decision.
    - Enforcement of the decision: Once the decision has been handed down, it must be enforced. If the defaulting party fails to comply with the decision, enforcement measures may be taken.

In Monaco, parties choose the dispute resolution method that best suits their needs. Whether through amicable or judicial proceedings, our firm is ready to assist you every step of the way, providing the expertise and support you need to navigate Monaco's legal system effectively.
