Our victories

Our lawyers represented a major international bank in a series of cases over the compulsory conversion of depositary receipts as established by special law No. 114-FZ.
We have protected the interests of Essity LLC, one of Russian leaders in the area of goods for hygiene and healthcare, before the Supreme Court. 
The team of our practice successfully implemented a project aimed at updating the anti-corruption policy of a major pharmaceutical company.
