TEAM OF YOUR PACEMAKERS AND GUIDES

Introducing Dr Rimantas Simaitis, MCIArb: a legal luminary, conflict resolver extraordinaire, and the dynamic force behind the Dispute Resolution Department at COBALT, one of the Baltic’s premier law firms. His expertise isn’t confined to courtrooms. He’s also a scholarly powerhouse, holding prestigious academic and scientific roles at Vilnius University’s Faculty of Law, and chairing the Arbitration Commission of the Lithuanian Bar.
Beyond the legal arena, Rimantas thrives on the adrenaline rush of endurance sports. As a seasoned triathlete and long-distance running aficionado, he’s conquered the Ironman not once, not twice, but an impressive four times! Plus, he’s tackled countless marathons and ultraruns, showcasing that his resilience extends far beyond the confines of the court and arbitration rooms.
Meet Dr Milda Markevičiūtė, shaking up stereotypes as an Associate Partner at COBALT focusing on the litigation and arbitration fields. But wait, there’s more – she’s also inspiring the legal minds of tomorrow at Vilnius University Faculty of Law. When she’s not occupied in the courtroom, you’ll find Milda immersing herself in the world of research, focusing on administrative penal law, dispute resolution, and the digital frontier of e-justice. Plus, she’s been involved in six EU-funded projects, focused on digitalisation of justice.
Despite jogging in all seasons, Milda has completed only one half-marathon and has experimented with ice-bathing only twice. So, you can safely rely on her to hold the pace nowhere near 4 min/km the morning after the Vilnius Arbitration Day. She also likes to kick back and relax with a glass of red wine, tinkering away at the piano, or indulging in some feel-good movie or story-telling stand-up comedy. And with a motto like “I will tell you when you are tired” (borrowed from her coach), you can bet she’s got a wicked sense of humour to match.
 

 

Introducing Marius Inta, a legal luminary, adept conflict resolver, and the driving force behind the Commercial Disputes Practice Group at COBALT.
When asked if he runs, Marius would answer: “sometimes”. Because he doesn’t think that running 20,000 km in the last 10 years is an important figure. More important reasons why Marius runs – it’s an escape from routine, freeing yourself from societal and social decision-making. Running is a conversation between your body and mind.
And if the numbers are interesting, then Marius has completed 10 marathons. Most of them are in different countries. Because seeing a foreign country while running is a great experience. Therefore, he invites other colleagues who came to the Arbitration Days to “see Vilnius with their feet”.
