One of the firm’s leading practices is Corporate and M&A.

Professional support of the processes of establishing or buying business is the basis for our clients’ successful development.

In order to implement the most effective individual business management system, it is important not to be mistaken with the choice of organizational form of business existence, corporate structuring jurisdiction and corporate governance model.

Corporate governance is a set of levers and counterbalances that make it possible to balance the interests of all parties in the conduct of business, in particular, the election of management bodies of a company or holding general meetings.

Involving corporate lawyers in business management minimizes the risks of hostile takeovers and corporate conflicts, both internal and external.
