  • ‘The team of Buterin & Partners is made of several lawyers, and each of them has knowledge in few different law areas. Because of this wide base of expertise, they are able to give us support in all parts of our business. For almost 15 years, every project of my company, from takeovers, mergers, IPOs, and complicated financial credit transactions, to changes in organization structure and business processes, was successfully supported by Buterin & Partners.'
  • ‘My general impression is that Buterin & Partners are people on whom you can rely completely. Until now, they always finished all legal tasks for us on time and in full, and their professional evaluations proved to be correct. When we discuss some legal issue, they always present several possible options, explaining both advantages and disadvantages of each one, based on applicable law and situation. At the same time, they also clearly say which option they recommend as best for us from the legal point of view.'
