"Schoenherr have particularly impressed us with their flexibility, having the right CEE coverage and their business thinking. We saw very good teamwork across borders."
Every economic activity is based on a number of contracts, whether standard contracts, including general terms and conditions, or specially negotiated contracts. Not all business transactions always run smoothly, so that out-of-court and judicial disputes can also occur. At Schoenherr we have significant experience in advising clients in all these aspects of commercial law:
Controversial amendments to the Macedonian gambling regulation
North Macedonia is currently in the process of amending the Games of Chance and Entertainment Games Act (the "Gambling Act"). Earlier in February, the Macedonian Parliament adopted the amendments to the Gambling Act, but President Stevo Pendarovski declined to sign the Decree for entry of the amendments into force, consequently returning them for further redrafting.
Lessons learned from recent ECJ case law
Even if the original version of the Council Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts has been in force since 16 April 1993 its significance is apparent from the abundance of case law handed down to date. As courts in various jurisdictions increasingly refer to this case law, sellers or suppliers cannot afford to neglect it when drafting their general terms and conditions (GTC).
Nevertheless, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) is still able to surprise consumers and sellers or suppliers with its case law and its consequences.
