Our office in Moscow has long been at the forefront of legal and business developments in Russia’s legal market. Our lawyers bring decades of experience serving clients in Russia and the former Soviet Union, and we can trace our involvement back to major trade and investment projects during the détente period of the late 1970s and the early days of perestroika.
