BGP Litigation announces the opening of a representative office in St Petersburg. The law firm has long been providing support in the region to big businesses from different economic sectors, including oil&gas majors, machine-building, banking, construction, transport, financial, IT, pharmaceutical and other companies.

The BGP Litigation lawyers in St Petersburg support clients in dispute resolution and bankruptcy, corporate law and M&A, taxation, customs law, transport and logistics, pharmaceutical and healthcare, and in other fields.

“This is not the first year we have observed a rise in the demand for legal services in St Petersburg. This confirmed our intention to develop business in the region. To open the office was a logical continuation of our strategy for expanding the firm and consolidated its strong positions on the Russian legal market. We are convinced that this step will help us maintain close contacts with clients, rapidly and effectively dealing with all their requests”, commented BGP Litigation Partner Timur Unarokov.
