Termination of Employment Contract: The Five Most Common Mistakes Made by Employers

Termination of an employment contract is one of the most complex and sensitive institutions of labor law, of exceptional importance for both employers and employees. From the employer’s perspective, it is not sufficient merely for a statutory ground for termination to exist. A resolution on employment termination must be carefully planned, legally grounded, and strategically structured. Any procedural error, insufficient reasoning, lack of relevant evidence, or failure to act in a timely manner may lead to litigation and annulment of such resolution. For the employee, termination is a matter of professional and personal livelihood. Losing a job often means losing...

Olympic Selection and Legal Review: When Will a Court Not Replace a Selector’s Decision?

The Olympic Winter Games (“OWG”), held in February 2026 in Milan and Cortina, brought sporting success to some athletes and significant legal challenges to others.

Cybersecurity Clauses: Why Contracts Are Becoming Companies’ First Line of Defence

In the modern digital economy, cybersecurity is no longer solely an IT issue. It has become a matter of legal strategy, risk management, and long-term business stability. A growing number of cyber incidents do not end with the technical remediation of systems but continue through regulatory proceedings, damage claims, and complex contractual disputes between business partners. In such an environment, contracts are becoming one of the most important instruments for protecting a company. A properly structured contract can prevent a cyber incident from escalating into a multi-year dispute or regulatory problem, whereas a poorly defined contractual framework often means that...

AI Hallucinations: Legal Liability of Service Providers

Artificial intelligence is becoming an indispensable part of modern business, but it also brings new legal and technical risks. One of the most well-known phenomena in the operation of AI systems is the occurrence of so-called hallucinations, i.e. situations in which the system confidently generates incorrect, fabricated, or illogical information while presenting it as factual. Hallucinations do not occur due to intent or consciousness of the algorithm, but as a consequence of the way AI models function. AI models do not know facts; instead, they predict the most probable sequence of words based on prior patterns. In practice, this can...

NIS2 and the Serbian Law on Information Security: Does the Domestic Framework Keep Pace with the European Evolution of Cyber Accountability?

With the adoption of the NIS2 Directive, the European Union has entered a new phase of regulatory development in cybersecurity. NIS2 represents not only a technical upgrade of previous regulations but a fundamental paradigm shift: cybersecurity becomes a matter of managerial responsibility, regulatory oversight, and potential liability for damages. In this context, the question arises to what extent the domestic regulatory framework, primarily the Law on Information Security, keeps pace with this evolution.
