Our victories

Our lawyers represented a major international bank in a series of cases over the compulsory conversion of depositary receipts as established by special law No. 114-FZ.
Our lawyers from St Petersburg corporate practice have successfully defended interests of a public enterprise, a large regional producer of bread and pastries, in a dispute with its former shareholders who sought to challenge a resolution of the enterprise’s supervisory board regarding how the redemption price of shares had been established.     
Pepeliaev Group’s antimonopoly lawyers have successfully represented a major international oil and gas company before the Russian Federal Antimonopoly Service (the "FAS") as part of a major transaction to acquire a share in a project to extract natural gas. 
Our lawyers supported our client’s transaction to acquire a number of works of contemporary art, including advice on the tax and customs aspects of the transaction, and drafting agreements for the sale and purchase of works of art under Russian law.
