Pepeliaev Group's website has been recognised as the most helpful in the Russian legal market

Pepeliaev Group has carried off the Most Helpful Law Firm Website Award 2015. This was the culmination of the Best Law Firm Website 2015 competition featuring Russian-speaking websites of law firms and attorneys’ offices.

The participants' websites were assessed taking into account the volume and quality of their legal content, including: information value, relevance, user-friendliness and accessibility, as well as creativity when presenting the material.

In the jury's opinion, Pepeliaev Group's website has turned into a powerful information resource, which on an ongoing basis displays analytical materials relating to the recent changes in various areas of legislation and legal practice. 

Vladimir Bagaev, member of the jury, head and founder of the Zakon.ru project, noted that the material on Pepeliaev Group's website is brought to the reader in an accessible manner. Legal alerts do not use dry legal style, and authors go to lengths to make their texts understandable to the target readership of potential clients. Special attention is given to issues which are important to clients in their day-to-day activities, he added.

Speaking of the significance of the analytical section, Mr Bagaev pointed out that the information on the website is regularly updated. This, he believes, evidences that the firm's lawyers are committed to analytical work, which allows them to maintain their skills. "Such firms will be perceived as more credible. This helps to decide whether it is worth working together with a firm or not", the expert summed up. 

In March, Pepeliaev Group announced the launch of its new website. Apart from the design, navigation systems and search engines, significant updates have been added to the content which has been enriched by a large volume of analytical materials. The 'Analysis and Brochures' section allows users to subscribe to any materials or to carry out a detailed search: a filter sorts the documents by areas of law and branches of the economy, as well as by the firm's offices and authors. The 'Media' section displays the firm's official news and the media coverage of the achievements of Pepeliaev Group's lawyers. Among other things, the page hosts images and videos from business conferences and forums. 

Pepeliaev Group is a leading Russian law firm offering the full range of legal services in all regions of Russia, most former Soviet countries and abroad. Over 160 lawyers in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Krasnoyarsk, as well as in Vladivostok and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (within the alliance with Russin & Vecchi), provide legal assistance to over 1,500 companies operating in various industries. 50% of these are international corporations implementing long-term investment projects in Russia.
