Attorney-at-Law · Riga

Litigation, arbitration and tax cases - with a positively aggressive approach.

I represent clients in court and in arbitration, resolve tax disputes and advise companies. My work is creative rather than formal - proven by amicable settlements reached in numerous litigations and positive results in many tax planning cases.

How I work

From assessment to resolution

Assessment

A view from every side

I assess each case from different points of view - the client's, the lawyer's, the auditor's and the opponent's. That is what makes the prospects precise.

Strategy

A plan and the fee

I prepare a plan of action and agree the fee in writing before starting work - no surprises.

Action

Fast and focused

I follow legal developments closely and act while others are still deliberating - fast and to the point.

Result

Settlement or judgment

I aim for the best achievable outcome. Confidentiality has a special role in my work.

Client feedback

"I valued the plain language and the calm with which the attorney handled my case in court. I always knew what would happen next and why."

"In a tax dispute with the revenue service we felt in safe hands - the arguments were impeccably prepared, and the result speaks for itself."
Jekaterina Sokolova Owner of an accounting firm
"The arbitration ended quickly and in our favour. I appreciated the precision and that the fee was clear from the very start."
