The European Convention on Human Rights is an international treaty and a basis for the European Court of Human Right’s decision-making. We have an in-depth understanding of the jurisprudence of this Court, one of our lawyers has even previously worked within the Committee of Ministers on monitoring the enforcement of ECtHR judgments.
