LNB NEWS: Law Society’s response to the MOJ’s Hague Judgments Convention consultation

The Law Society published its response to the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) consultation as to whether the UK should join the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Civil or Commercial Matters (Hague Convention 2019). 

Lexis®Library update: The Law Society supports the UK joining the convention both to improve the recognition and enforcement of UK judgments in other jurisdictions which will in turn have a positive impact on enhancing the reputation of the courts of England and Wales for international dispute resolution.
