Legal Industry Reviews is a global legal intelligence platform providing in-depth analysis and practical insights across jurisdictions, with contributions from leading practitioners worldwide. The launch of its inaugural Cyprus edition marks an important milestone in showcasing developments within the Cypriot legal landscape to an international audience.

Marina’s article, titled “Stand-alone interim orders in aid of foreign court proceedings: a new reality for Cyprus”, examines the significant procedural and legislative reforms that have reshaped the availability of interim relief in Cyprus. The article traces the former limitations faced by litigants seeking interim measures in support of foreign court proceedings and highlights how the introduction of the new Civil Procedure Rules in September 2023, together with amendments to the Courts of Justice Law, has fundamentally altered the landscape.

The analysis explores the Cyprus courts’ newly confirmed jurisdiction to grant freestanding interim orders at any stage of proceedings — whether pending, concluded or anticipated — in Cyprus or abroad. It also outlines the circumstances in which interim relief may be granted in aid of foreign proceedings, the applicable legal conditions, and the broad range of interim measures now expressly available under the new procedural framework.

The article concludes that these reforms represent a game-changing development, positioning Cyprus as a jurisdiction of choice for cross-border asset recovery and strengthening its role as an effective forum for international dispute resolution and the fight against fraud.
