BaghdadiLaw’s experience in commercial litigation defense in Syria

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to commercial litigation defence, with detailed knowledge of analysing each element of a claim, testing the opposing evidence and developing defences and counterclaims. A Syrian business served with a claim needs to identify what is alleged, which deadlines apply and what evidence answers each allegation. A structured defence can distinguish admitted transactions from disputed amounts, authority, performance or legal responsibility.

Article 99 of historical Civil Procedure Law 1/2016 addresses a written answer supported by documents, within the procedural framework of Articles 95–106. The defence also requires the substantive rules governing the disputed transaction. Current response dates and the effect of particular objections must be verified from the service and court file. A general denial may leave documented payments or a specific acceptance dispute unexplained. Match each defence to the corresponding invoice, clause or communication and acknowledge facts that are not genuinely disputed.

We agree the work your matter needs: Contest unsupported allegations, reconcile an admitted balance, assess any counterclaim or negotiate a documented settlement. A counterclaim needs its own factual and legal basis. The deliverable is agreed for your file: The consultation can deliver an allegation-response matrix, a defence evidence index and an assessment of procedural and settlement options.

Common questions

Before requesting advice on commercial litigation defense in Syria

What should a defendant prepare after receiving a Syrian commercial claim?

Preserve the complete claim and service record, identify urgent procedural requirements and build a response to each material allegation. Reconcile payments, variations and acceptance evidence. Raise forum or authority issues through the proper procedure rather than ignoring the claim because the business disputes it.

Can the claim be ignored if the amount is wrong?

No. The discrepancy should be addressed through the appropriate response with a supported calculation.

Should every disputed invoice be denied in full?

Separate admitted and disputed parts; a precise explanation is more useful than an unsupported blanket denial.
