Firm Details

VB Partners is the #1 White-Collar Crime boutique law firm in Ukraine with a strong presence in Dispute Resolution. We have been implementing uncompromising standards of legal service in the national market for 20 years.

In order to effectively confront the challenges posed by business crime, we possess a comprehensive understanding of both the national legal framework and the corporate landscape.

Forty fully-qualified lawyers in our team advocate on behalf of our clients when interacting with law enforcement agencies at all stages of white-collar crime cases. In addition, we defend individuals entrusted with prominent public functions in anti-corruption cases subject to increased public and media attention.

Our key expertise also extends to extradition and Interpol matters across the entire spectrum of cross-border investigations.

Resolution of legal disputes in national courts and arbitration institutions of all levels and jurisdictions constitutes another priority for VB Partners. Government and regulatory disputes comprise a substantial portion of ongoing projects.

Modern challenges demand high-caliber expertise in sanctions law. We were among the first in Ukraine who managed to lift sanctions against non-resident companies both in court and administrative proceedings.

VB Partners and its accomplished attorneys are highly esteemed for their outstanding track record in Business Crime Defence and Litigation in all major international legal directories, including Chambers, Legal 500, Who’s Who Legal and Best Lawyers.
