FBK Legal Participates in SibLegalWeek

FBK Legal has provided support to SibLegalWeek and became a partner of the forum.
Alexander Ermolenko has once again shared his insights at the forum. This year he spoke about corporate agreements as an instrument to overcome a deadlock. Sergey Ermolenko participated in a session dedicated to intellectual property and spoke about unfair competition when using trademarks and protection of infringed rights.
Taxes remained one of the hottest topics and were covered in two forum sessions. The first one focused on typical mistakes that businesses make in tax planning. Ekaterina Golubeva was among the speakers and presented an overview of business split risks with respect to benefits provided to IT companies and SMEs. The second one was organised as a practical session where participants discussed real-life business split cases. Nadezhda Orlova acted as an arbitrator.
Elizaveta Kapustina explained how to prepare procedural documents during a discussion of legal design. Participants of the discussion also talked about the way Russian courts treat documents prepared under European standards.
Nadezhda Orlova also took part in a session dedicated to law firm management and discussed client service: how to choose your client and how to influence decision-makers for them to choose you back.
