Second LJUBLJANA PIL Conference – express registration up to 30 June!

On 10 September 2026, the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Law, in cooperation with the Institute for Comparative Law, will host the Second Private International Law Conference, a regional forum dedicated to current developments and emerging challenges in private international law. The conference will bring together leading academics, judges, attorneys, arbitrators, and legal practitioners from Slovenia and across Europe to discuss some of the most significant issues arising in cross-border legal practice. With the aim of engaging the international private international law community while also fostering the development and use of Slovenian legal terminology, the conference programme is divided into two parts: a morning session in Slovenian and an afternoon session in English. Abstracts of all presentations will be available in both languages.

International colleagues are warmly invited to join the afternoon programme, which features the following speakers:
Stefania Bariatti of the University of Milan,
Hans van Loon, former Secretary General of the Hague Conference of Private International Law,
Gilles Cuniberti of the University of Luxemburg and President of EAPIL,
Ivana Kunda of the University of Rijeka,
Marko Bošnjak, judge at the Court of Justice of the CJEU,
Ana Kerševan, State Attorney General of Slovenia, and
Judita Dolžan of the Permanent Representation of the Republic of Slovenia to the European Union.

The morning session (in Slovenian) with Vesna Rijavec, Aleš Galič, Jerca Kramberger Škerl, Andrej Bebler, Filip Dougan, Urban Vrtačnik, and Borut Leskovec, will focus on practical and doctrinal issues, such as the cross-border effects of enforceable notarial deeds, applicable laws in international commercial arbitration, strategic lawsuits against public participation (SLAPP), reinsurance contracts, the European Payment Order, cross-border property relations of couples, and international family law disputes.

More information is available in the Programme.
