In-Person Event: Common Law Jurisdiction - How to Pursue Foreign Parties in the English Courts

Fortior Law, British-Kazakh Society, British-Kazakh Law Association and Global Case are pleased to invite BKS Members and Partners to an in-person event in London.

When a dispute crosses borders, strategy becomes critical. The English courts remain one of the leading forums for resolving international disputes, but effective proceedings require a clear understanding of jurisdictional principles and procedural tools.

During the seminar, we will examine the mechanisms that make cross-border litigation possible in practice:

• The doctrine of domicile: Establishing a sufficient jurisdictional link with the defendant.

• Extension of English jurisdiction to foreign defendants: Legal grounds and procedural requirements for bringing claims against non-residents.

• Service of process out of the jurisdiction: Practical aspects and challenges of international service.
