Corporate law in Russia

Company set up, liquidation in Russia
When you set up a company in Russia, it should suit your business strategy and available resources. The most common types of companies set up are a Russian limited liability company and branch. Please check options to comply with their management and administration requirements. Of course we can take care of the bureaucratic registration procedure for you to set up a company in Russia, or liquidate it.

Joint ventures in Russia
When your Russian subsidiary is not wholly-owned but a joint venture with a Russian partner it is important to set out the rights and obligations of the shareholders in a shareholders’ agreement. We have been able to play a useful role in such negotiations based on our legal knowledge, our language and cultural expertise.

Mergers and acquisitions, restructuring, Anti-Monopoly law in Russia
There can be different reasons for restructuring of companies in Russia and for mergers and acquisitions. In all cases good communications and co-ordination between various international advisors/parties are essential. Tax experts must be involved or will be leading in designing efficient schemes. Please make sure to consider also anti-monopoly issues before you set up a company in Russia.
