Cross-border matters turn on questions that should be answered before any demand is made: which law governs the contract, where a claim could be brought, and whether any judgment obtained could realistically be enforced against the debtor's assets.
Jurisdiction and governing law
Contractual clauses are reviewed first. Where they are absent or inconsistent, the position is assessed on the facts of the dealings.
Enforcement realism
A judgment that cannot be enforced where the debtor's assets are located has limited commercial value. Enforcement is considered before escalation, not afterwards.
Local escalation
Where local action is required, matters are escalated through appropriately qualified local representation. [INSERT VERIFIED INTERNATIONAL COVERAGE AND PARTNER NETWORK DETAILS]
