Heading in contract
LEGGE APPLICABILE - FORO COMPETENTE ESCLUSIVO
Is it correct to speak of the "competent court" or is "jurisdiction" better? What does one do with the "exclusivo" bit then?

(Sole) competent court
Explanation:
Although I would turn the sentence around and say that "the court of X has sole jurisdiction".

For the title of a clause, I'd just use "Competent Court".

EXCLUSIVE PLACE OF JURISDICTION


Explanation:
I thinks this would be better. I have just translated a long document about "conflicts of jurisdiction" and this was the term used in the English reference material supplied by the European Commission.
