As a solicitor of England and Wales with in-depth knowledge of the political and cultural context of the post-Soviet region, she frequently represents high-net-worth individuals and corporations from the former Soviet Union. Proficient in Russian, German and French, she specialises in developing and implementing coordinated, multi-jurisdictional strategies for the effective resolution of international disputes.
