Any international concern in Russia often needs professional localization of legal support, especially in these difficult times. In the face of our colleagues from Solstico Legal, in addition to the obligatory corporate legal consulting, we found the expertise we needed when, as is frequently the case, a local expert's opinion on legal relations with Russian suppliers and customers is required on short notice.
