Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • Boyanov & Co. has proven its capabilities in a number of challenging cases involving not just corporate and private clients but also governments; this required knowledge of Bulgarian and foreign legal systems, as well as public and corporate culture. Boyanov & Co. also stands out by knowing the business of its customers, not just the legal and administrative framework of each case. This is very rare and allows them to offer valuable insights and support. The professional qualifications of their diverse team are well known and require no specific endorsement.
  • I have provided above what makes Boyanov & Co. stand out. I would specifically mention Mr. Boyanov himself as well as Yordan Naydenov. No matter how busy their schedule may be, they always find time to meet.
  • 'Diverse, knowledgeable, collaborative and most important - understanding our business very well.'
