Contracts in Croatia – why you need a lawyer

Parties who want to sign contracts with companies in Croatia must know from the beginning the terms and conditions of such agreement. According to Croatian laws, each contract needs to set clear terms and information about both parties involved. The following aspects are mentioned in a contract in Croatia:

•    information about the parties involved in the arrangement;

•    the duration of the contract;

•    the services offered;

•    the established value for the services provided;

•    the legal aspects in case of litigation and termination of the contract.

It is important to stress that foreign investors in Croatia should solicit the services of a Croatian law firm before finalizing any arrangement, in order to understand better the legal aspects involved, and to check if there are any hidden terms which might affect the collaboration between the two parties.

Contracts termination in Croatia

A contract in Croatia can be terminated if one of the parties did not respect the terms mentioned and agreed at the beginning. In this situation, the party who discovered that the conditions have been violated or not respected can sue the other party or can consider mediation in such case. Since court proceedings in Croatia can take a long time and can be expensive, negotiation is usually recommended in such situations instead of dealing with litigation and court meetings.
