Our values
Our work is organized around specialized practice areas, and we have expertise across all industry sectors.
There are many distinctive characteristics of our practice – in fact, we believe that there are five features that characterize us.
Efficiency
Maximum efficiency is a requisite.
Time is precious. We fully understand this.
Our business approach is that the client should never have to wait for the answer. Our organizational structure of senior lawyers with considerable experience and knowledge allows us to prioritize adequately, avoiding unnecessary and time-consuming research, essentially leading to efficient results in the form of quality answers.
Efficiency
Instant gratification is an asset in the business world.
Organizational structure
Our organizational structure is designed around clients’ needs with the focus on quality control and streamlined approach with no red-tape.
Our team is composed in large part of qualified experienced lawyers and not trainees and juniors. In addition, although we have specialized departments, expert practice groups and regional desks within the practice, we manage to streamline approach and work for clients by designating one point of contact regardless of the number of jurisdictions involved.
This rule is applicable regardless of the type of work, geographical spread or mandate complexity.
Organizational structure
A bespoke streamlined approach and consistent quality control are the foundation of our practice.
Business oriented approach
We are not conventional lawyers -we consider both legal and non-legal aspects of our clients’ business.
We do not ignore financial, strategic, operational, organizational and other non-legal aspects of our clients’ enterprise. Many of our lawyers hold business degrees alongside their law degrees, having learned the “tricks of the trade” from domestic, as well as international universities.
Some of our lawyers have held positions with international companies, while others have worked at leading international and domestic law firms. This “eclectic” team composition makes us truly different in the market, and enables thorough understanding of our client’s business, ultimately allowing us to provide valuable, practical assistance.
Business oriented approach
The added value we provide comes from a multifactorial analysis that our clients find highly valuable.
Substantive simplicity
We strive for substantive simplicity, ensuring that complex issues are communicated clearly.
Our principle is to provide concrete, concise, yet comprehensive legal advice and solutions that our clients can actually use and implement in their business. We apply the “Blackberry” rule whenever we can. This rule is applicable regardless of the type of work, geographical spread or mandate complexity.
The client receives a “yes” or “no” answer, and if the legal situation is unclear, we tend to express our best estimate in percentages, so that the client can always rely on our advice when making important commercial decisions.
Substantive simplicity
Substantive simplicity is clarity of understanding.
Integrity and Ethics
Integrity and ethics are the cornerstone of our practice.
We are committed to upholding the highest standards of honesty, transparency, and fairness in every aspect of our work. Our team operates with a strong moral compass, ensuring that our clients' interests are always protected while adhering to the legal and ethical frameworks that govern our industry.
By fostering trust and accountability, we build long-lasting relationships based on mutual respect and a shared commitment to doing what is right.
Integrity and Ethics
Integrity and ethics form the foundation of our practice.
