Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- ‘We work with Noewe Legal in this and other areas for many years. They really always impress us with their proposal of solutions and how well they understand our business and needs. Over the years, I have really grown to trust them and rely on their good judgement and advice. They have helped us several times with big syndicated financing and even mezzanine projects, both in our and in the energy sector. As far as I know, they really have good experience working with many huge international financing projects. I have used Noewe Legal myself and do recommend others to do that in Lithuania. Overall, their team has accumulated experience that is several decades long and really stands out. We trust and like them. ’
- Robert Juodka is the undisputed leader and expert here, who works together with his long-time partner Tomas Venckus. Robert Juodka has a really deep understanding of the banking sector and the motivation behind their actions and demands since he himself started his career in a bank many years ago. Knowledge of over 6 languages helps Robert (and thus, me) to communicate and understand many things on a totally different level. I like the way they manage projects and achieve results by avoiding unnecessary procedures and unnecessary legal talk that is so common for many other lawyers. ’
