Summary

In the case between Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP (Claimant) and Gulf Beach Trading & Contracting WLL (Defendant), the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court ordered the Defendant to pay QAR 143,000 for unpaid legal fees. Despite attempts to negotiate and extensions for the Defendant to respond, the Court sided with the Claimant, rejecting the Defendant’s arguments. The Defendant eventually paid the judgment debt but incurred additional costs, leading to a total cost claim of QAR 275,006.50 by the Claimant, which included proceedings, enforcement, and cost assessment. The Court emphasized proportionality and reasonable costs.
