Frequently asked questions
How long does litigation take in Cyprus?
Historically Cyprus litigation could be slow, but sweeping reforms — new Civil Procedure Rules (2023), a dedicated Commercial Court and digitisation — are designed to cut timelines materially. Duration still depends on complexity and court load.
Are Cyprus courts good for injunctions?
Yes. Cyprus courts, applying common-law principles, are well known for granting interim and worldwide freezing injunctions, making the jurisdiction attractive for asset-tracing and fraud cases.
