With a team that regularly collaborates with Lithuanian and Estonian counterparts, WALLESS adopts a pan-Baltic approach whilst maintaining a foundation of local mandates, specifically advising on the expansion of Riga International Airport. Frequently, team members also act in infrastructure projects in the transportation industry, as well as public procurement matters with a cross-border angle. On the disputes side, the group deals with cargo, damage, and commercial claims. Sintija Radionova, who excels in M&A in the transportation space, and practice head Kristīne Gaigule-Šāvēja are standout team members. The practice was further strengthened by the addition of Arina Stivriņa, who joined from TEGOS (Formerly TGS Baltic) in November 2024.
