Pepeliaev Group tops the Best Lawyers ranking

The authoritative international legal ranking Best Lawyers 2014 has hailed Pepeliaev Group as Top Listed in Tax, which means that Pepeliaev is recognised as the top firm in Russian tax law. This award is handed to firms whose lawyers occupy the highest positions in the ranking within a certain region and practice area.

The successful work of six tax experts at Pepeliaev Group secured such a high rank from Best Lawyers. The reviewers set great store by the professional achievements of Managing Partner Sergey Pepeliaev, Senior Partners Rustem Ahmetshin and Ivan Khamenushko, Partner Valentina Akimova, together with Head of Pepeliaev Group's St. Petersburg office Sergey Spasennov, and Head of the Tax Practice in Pepeliaev Group's St. Petersburg office Sergey Sosnovsky.

This is far from being the first time that Best Lawyers have given an award to Pepeliaev Group. Shortly before that, Sergey Pepeliaev was awarded the Lawyer of the Year in Litigation in Moscow.
