Pravo.ru: Interview with FBK Legal Partner Eduard Giulbasarov
For Eduard Giulbasarov, tax disputes are more than just legal proceedings—they are the moment of truth in advisory work: ‘Tax consulting often leaves a sense of incompleteness. In a dispute, however, the matter is settled once and for all: you are either right or wrong’. It is here that the strength of a legal position is tested and conflicts are ultimately resolved. This area forms the core of his professional focus: Eduard began his career in tax litigation, which still remains a central pillar of FBK Legal’s practice.

FBK Legal on Tax Clause
Zakon.ru has published Ekaterina Subbotina?s article on benefits of a tax clause. The lawyer explored the broad and narrow sense of a tax clause, explained which type of a tax clause has recently become a hot topic and why that happened. Ekaterina suggested looking at the problem from the point of view of a conscientious taxpayer: should such a taxpayer include a tax clause into contracts and are there any situations when it can really help? The expert analysed the most wide-spread arguments against tax clauses and the ways to protect yourself from tax risks under the civil law, as well as shared her objections to those critical opinions. In addition, Ekaterina spoke about the main problem of judicial practices in cases concerning tax losses, recommended how to reply to objections from defendants in such proceedings and listed cases when a tax clause can have a significant effect on insurance against a tax risk based on FBK Legal?s experience in tax support of contractual arrangements.Zakon.ru has published Ekaterina Subbotina?s article on benefits of a tax clause.

In his speech about the future of the legal profession, he said that it depends in Russia on the specifics of the local legal system, rather than on the global trends. “These specifics are not too beneficial for lawyers. The economy depends more and more on the government, the legal solutions are ignored and the legal services market is in stagnation. If we fail to make the law in demand again, the future is rather predictable and it does not look promising,” Alexander Ermolenko said. The forum also covered such topics as the law firm management and special skills required for a successful lawyer. In addition, attendees discussed real-life cases related to bankruptcy, criminal liability for business owners, legal fees etc. Legal Day: Max is the Fourth Legal Day forum arranged by the communication agency Beneficium.
