About the Bureau – versiaonline.ru

Profession of Advocate

For us, professional advocacy is, first of all, a creative process.

We do our work without templates, paying attention to all details of the project, whether it is support of a transaction or participation in a trial.

Due to this approach we have acquired skills in performing unique legal tasks and we can always offer novel, fresh solutions even for standard situations.

Teamwork

Usually we work on a Client’s problem as a group of advocates, which allows us to consider situations from different angles and - as a result - to find optimal legal solutions.

It is no secret that under modern conditions solving complex legal problems requires a lawyer to have wide legal knowledge and experience.

For instance, corporate law issues could be closely related to tax issues, and debt recovery could be performed within both civil and bankruptcy proceedings and even within criminal proceedings.

Each of our Bureau’s advocates has its own speciality, which allows us to practice effectively in various branches of law and perform complex, multi-disciplinary projects in different business areas.

We also deeply value and maintain relationships with all our colleagues who have worked in the Bureau at various stages of their careers or collaborated with us on complex projects: advocates, patent attorneys, auditors.
Our team is always wider than the Bureau’s current staff of advocates.

Three Summands

Our experience shows that successful legal aid requires three Summands.

Knowledge of the subject

In law-enforcement practice, it is important for an advocate to have a detailed knowledge on the merits of the issue he is facing.

That’s why each advocate of our Bureau sustains its speciality, which allows us to practice a significant range of legal issues and advise in projects at an intersection of legal areas.

Integrity

To be productive, the relationship between advocate and Client must be mutually trusting. This can be achieved by maximum transparency in the actions of both Client and its advocate.

For us this approach is a key to a long-term trusting relationship with our Clients.

Effectiveness

One more component of successful legal work is an advocate’s ability to bring the situation to its logical closure by achieving the goals set by a Client and sometimes even exceeding its expectations. We always strive for high results in our work.

Permanence

To solve certain issues prompt and fast actions are required, and some challenging projects last for years. It is important not to lose initial energy working on them.

In our practice we are trying to combine rapidity and endurance, which ensures a consistent high quality of our work.

In intricate cases such an attitude has repeatedly allowed us to attain review of judicial decisions, which didn’t meet the interest of the Client, by higher Courts.

Punctuality

Any work gives the greatest return when it is planned thoroughly.

We meet all deadlines and schedules.

We appreciate, when Clients share this approach with us and, on their part, pursue punctuality in our relationship as well.

Clients

In their practice advocates of our Bureau have repeatedly represented interests of enterprises that occupy leading positions in the following areas:

engineerings,

mining industry,

scientific and technological area,

foreign trade,

construction and development,

medicine,

information technology,

other production segments.

The Bureau builds relationships with its clients on a long-term basis. We regularly receive grateful feedback about our work and expand the range of legal services provided.

The Bureau’s activity aims at legal support of stable and successful development of Russian and foreign companies. We highly appreciate the desire of our Clients to entrust us with their sometimes most complicated legal issues.

Attorney privilege

Confidentiality is essential and sometimes even crucial when solving legal issues.

In our case you can count on complete confidentiality of any document and information provided to us.

By virtue of the Federal Law “On advocate activity and advocacy in the Russian Federation” all information related to provision of legal assistance by an advocate to its client is subject to attorney-client privilege, which means it is protected from any encroachment of the third party.

In particular, information provided to an advocate by its client or gathered by an advocate on its own while working under client’s order can not be obtained from an advocate by law enforcement agencies without its client’s consent.

We believe attorney-client privilege applies even to the fact itself that a person or a company applies to an advocate for legal aid.

That’s why our website only contains that information about legal assistance provided by our Bureau which is available in free access on official resources.
