Solicitor for Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Law in Mosta

I’m having a serious ongoing dispute with my landlord in Malta over repairs he refuses to carry out despite them being clearly his responsibility. Someone mentioned arbitration as an option and I’m wondering whether the Malta Arbitration Centre actually handles this type of residential dispute, or whether that’s not really what it’s for.

An arbitration process concluded recently in a commercial dispute I was involved in through the Malta Arbitration Centre, and the outcome was not what I expected. I feel the arbitrator misunderstood some key evidence. Can I actually challenge or appeal an arbitration award, or is it truly final?

I have a relatively straightforward civil claim against someone in Malta and I’m considering handling it myself rather than hiring a lawyer, mainly to save on costs given the amount isn’t huge. Is self-representation actually allowed in Maltese civil courts, or is legal representation generally required?

I run a small business in Malta and I’m drafting standard contracts for use with individual consumers, not other businesses. I was thinking of including a mandatory arbitration clause requiring any dispute to go through arbitration rather than court. Is this actually enforceable against consumers under Maltese law?

I’m considering filing a civil claim in Malta over a contractual dispute involving a reasonably significant amount of money, but before committing to litigation, I want a realistic sense of how long court proceedings actually tend to take here, since I’ve heard mixed things.

I won a civil case in Malta against someone who owed me a significant amount of money, but shortly after the judgment, they moved to another EU country and I’m not sure how to actually collect what I’m owed now that they’re no longer here. Does the judgment become useless once they leave Malta?

I reached a settlement agreement directly with the other party in a business dispute in Malta, without going through formal court or arbitration proceedings, just through direct negotiation between our lawyers. Is this kind of privately negotiated settlement actually enforceable if the other side later doesn’t comply with it?

During an ongoing arbitration in Malta, I’ve become concerned that one of the appointed arbitrators has a prior professional relationship with the opposing party that was never disclosed to me. Is there a way to actually challenge or remove an arbitrator mid-process if I believe they may be biased?
