Dispute resolution

Foreign litigation

We have vast experience in strategic management of foreign litigation cases in many civil law and common law jurisdictions and coordinating such cases with actions in Russia and elsewhere abroad.
 
We help our clients to engage and manage work of local counsel, assist with matters of Russian law and collection of evidence, supervise work of ancillary service providers such as investigators and experts and manage cases in various other forms in light of the clients’ goals. In cooperation with local counsel, we find cost- and time-efficient ways to protect our clients’ interests.
