Profile:
Russia is one of the most dynamic, high-growth markets in the world. Economic growth has increased on average 6.7 percent a year over the past seven years. Investors, however, need experienced legal counsel to help navigate the challenging regulatory environment, to minimize administrative burdens on investment, and to build tax efficiency strategies. Whether you are an international company seeking to establish or develop your business in Russia or a Russian company planning your international investment strategy, Hogan & Hartson can help you to achieve your goals.
Since our Moscow office opened in 1994, we have built a strong market reputation for highly complex corporate and commercial work, including mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, capital markets, banking, private equity, tax, real estate, intellectual property, international litigation, and arbitration.
We have a deep knowledge of the Russian market and its unique business dynamics. We bring to our transactions a critical understanding of industry-specific issues, as we have been involved in several landmark projects in key sectors in Russia, including banking, metals and mining, telecommunications, energy, automotive, aviation, real estate, media and entertainment, and insurance.
Our team of dedicated Russian and American lawyers provides our clients with significant advantages: outstanding knowledge and experience in the region; Western business know-how and experience in structuring highly complex cross-border transactions; and an proactive, and highly responsive attitude toward obtaining the best possible outcome for clients. Our lawyers are able to coordinate resources effectively to deliver the appropriate legal advice in a tight time frame and in a cost-effective manner. We provide our clients with multifaceted teams of advisors to help optimize their corporate structures and achieve desired results quickly, efficiently, and competitively. We think creatively from both a legal and a commercial perspective and work with clients from concept through to successful completion, including advice on probable costs, timings, tax consequences, market trends, and alternate structures.
All of our Moscow office lawyers and legal professionals are fluent in English and in many cases have one or more graduate or post-graduate degrees from American and/or European universities. We are also able to conduct business in German, French, and Spanish. Additionally, every member of our Moscow support staff is bilingual.
We offer our clients the added benefit of resident American lawyers. In addition to their Russian knowledge, they have experience working on deals in other countries and throughout the United States, Europe, the former Soviet Union, Asia, and South America. This global insight enables us to assist our clients in operating effectively under the Russian legal system, while utilizing our experience with Western legal concepts and transaction structures.
We not only have a proven track record in providing legal and commercial advice to the highest standard, but also in creating the standards. We have been involved in a number of innovative and precedent-setting transactions, such as sending private civilian passengers to the International Space Station on Russian launch vehicles and paving the way for Russian and Western financial-industrial groups to participate in major mergers and acquisitions in key sectors of the Russian and world economies.
Hogan & Hartson is a truly international firm, with offices in the United States, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Our global network enables us to work on transactions and cases in several offices at once, or bring lawyers with a specific skill set from one office to another, if necessary, and to deliver efficient, comprehensive, and seamless legal services wherever our clients’ business interests take them, including in several jurisdictions at once. |
