JPM Law Office

JPM & Partners has successfully secured a significant arbitration win in a complex, high-stakes dispute!

Rooted in Roman law, fiduciary transfers were incorporated into Montenegro’s legal system through the “Law on Fiduciary Transfer of Rights”(1996) and later governed by the “Law on Property Relations” (2009).

Unfair trade practices, such as misleading advertising or aggressive sales tactics, can harm consumers and expose companies to legal and reputational risks, even if unintentional.

The distinction between a domestic and a foreign arbitral award is important because it affects the recognition, enforcement, and legal remedies available under Serbian law.

Montenegro has adopted amendments to its Law on Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing, effective 20 March 2025, introducing stricter regulations for crypto assets, gambling operators, and beneficial ownership transparency.

The Ministry of Finance has introduced updated arm’s length interest rates for 2025, effective March 8, through a newly adopted rulebook published in the Official Gazette.

In Montenegro, the law ensures that employees doing the same job—or jobs of similar value—must receive equal pay, whether based on education, skills, responsibility, or working conditions.
