Recent updates

When drawing up a contract, attention is often focused on price agreements, delivery times and liability. This is understandable, as these are the issues that the parties usually negotiate. However, a clause that often appears at the bottom of the contract is regularly underestimated: the choice of forum clause. A choice of forum clause determines which court has jurisdiction to hear a dispute between the parties. This may seem like a minor detail, but in practice this provision can have significant consequences. A well-drafted choice of forum clause can prevent uncertainty, limit legal costs and ensure that a dispute is resolved more quickly. Conversely, the absence of a clear choice of forum can lead to protracted disputes over which court has jurisdiction.

This blog focuses on the practice of the NCC. When is it wise to bring a case before the NCC? How do you actually make use of this court? And what points should entrepreneurs consider when making that decision?

Doing business internationally is part of everyday practice for many companies. Contracts are drawn up in English, counterparties are based in different countries, and disputes do not stop at national borders. In this international playing field, it is essential that disputes are resolved quickly, professionally, and predictably. Since 2019, the Netherlands Commercial Court (NCC) has played an important role in this regard. This specialised court was established to settle international commercial disputes within the Dutch legal system, but entirely in English. In this first blog, I will discuss what exactly the NCC is and why this court was established. In a subsequent blog, I will explain how to litigate before the NCC.
