Our International Private Law team, comprising skilled legal professionals, delivers precise and comprehensive advice, ensuring our clients are effectively supported in cross-border legal matters. We are particularly well-equipped due to our extensive international connections. With access to a solid global network of legal advisors, we offer prompt guidance irrespective of the foreign jurisdiction in question.

We collaborate closely with attorneys specialised in specific sectors or practices in our firm and partner firms globally when multiple legal systems are at play. Our core areas of expertise include representing clients in cross-border legal disputes, facilitating business engagements and contracts between Baltic entities and overseas, supporting clients upon breaches of contract in foreign legal systems, assisting local companies in branching out to other countries or in the acquisition of foreign company interests and advising on foreign investments in the Baltics and assisting Baltic entities with overseas investments.

The close-knit nature of our practice assures that our clients receive personal attention, ensuring that their unique challenges and aspirations are understood. We don’t just interpret the law, we work to understand the underlying business drivers and the broader context in which our clients operate.

Cross-border contractual agreements

We are experts in drafting, reviewing, and enforcing international contracts. With our overseas legal partners assistance, we help to ensure compliance, protection against unforeseen liabilities and promote favourable terms that uphold both parties’ interests in varied jurisdictions.

Cross-border dispute resolution

Our team assists our clients in cross-border disputes. In cases where our clients go to court in foreign jurisdictions, we help them by being the second set of eyes from the client’s perspective when the client works with an attorney representing them in a foreign court.

Cross-border mergers and acquisitions

We advise clients in structuring and expanding their international business by helping to merge multiple entities from different countries or by transferring them. Leveraging our extensive network of global partners, we ensure a seamless and efficient cross-border experience, enabling our clients to navigate international markets with confidence and success.

Cross-border insolvency

Participating in cross-border insolvency proceedings entails coordination and cooperation between the legal systems of different countries. Our specialised services include advising on cross-border insolvency regulations, coordinating primary and secondary insolvency proceedings, ensuring the seamless recognition of foreign proceedings and restructuring.

Foreign investment guidance

Our team of attorneys provides expert advice on overseas or Baltic investments. We assist our clients in determining relevant nuances, benefits, risks and regulations, ensuring that their decisions are informed, compliant, and strategically sound.

Cultural and legal differences

Working on global markets means understanding local cultural and legal field. We have a strong network of experts and vast experience to provide insight, ensuring businesses integrate smoothly and respect local norms while operating efficiently.

Import and export regulations

Cross-border trade brings both challenges and opportunities. Our team of attorneys assists our clients with import/export transactions and public law requirements such as regulations, tariffs and trade agreements, helping to achieve compliant trade operations.

Real estate and property abroad

Acquiring or managing foreign properties requires both technical knowledge and knowing the right questions to ask, as real estate laws are rooted in a wider cultural background and are, therefore, more intricate than one might presume. We assist our clients in the purchase, lease, management, and sale of real estate in the Baltics and, with the assistance of our network of overseas attorneys, in foreign jurisdictions.

Maritime contracts and charter parties

We support our clients in crafting and interpreting maritime contracts, including charter parties. We offer guidance on drafting, negotiation, and enforcement, ensuring that our clients’ maritime contracts protect their interests while adhering to international maritime regulations and best practices.

Ship arrest and maritime liens

Our team assists clients in ship arrests, ensuring our clients can secure claims against vessels. We also advise on maritime liens, ensuring rights and claims related to its services are adequately protected against any potential defaults or disputes.
