Rivals view it as an aggressive competitor, but clients like the way this approach is translated into service. "The service was tight, it was crunchy. They turned around the work quickly. It was relevant. I was a happy customer," says one client. Reimo Hammerberg heads the banking and finance team, and is described as "an excellent lawyer" by one banking client.

SORAINEN is the only single pan-Baltic firm, operating in all three Baltic states. The firm spread further afield this year, opening an office in Minsk in early 2008. This cross-border array is striking a chord with clients. "We took SORAINEN on because it was a known brand across all three jurisdictions," says one client.

Pan-Baltic firm SORAINEN is viewed as a young and aggressive practice that is making inroads on competitors, particularly in the banking and finance market. "They are very visible, and they have technical ability," says one competitor. "They have the resources to move quickly." Clients are happy with the firm too, with one saying: "I have worked with them on two or three deals. We were very successful and had a good co-operation with them."

One banking client praised the firm for its "pragmatic approach to finding legal solutions and supportiveness when liaising with clients".

SORAINEN is developing a strong banking and finance practice that is making the market sit up and take notice. Clients like the approach the firm brings to its work: "They are proactive, flexible and familiar with the clients' and banking markets' needs," says one. "They are a leading law firm that supports banks with their expertise in the field of company restructuring. They are very professional and commercial, and act in reasonable and co-operative manner."

SORAINEN [...] provides a "high-quality service, particularly in respect of professionalism and business knowledge", say clients.

SORAINEN's tier-one ranking is the result of a client list that reads like a "who's who" of leading European finance houses: JP Morgan Securities, Barclays Capital and BNP Paribas, to name a few.

The firm's pan-Baltic presence is highly regarded, and on the back of this it has secured some notable mandates spanning the Baltic states. "They're all about solving problems, and giving fast and focused advice that you can use straight away." Reimo Hammerberg is noted by clients as a dynamic banking lawyer who is "highly motivated and always eager to deliver".

Clients commend this practice for its "extraordinary service," clarifying that it is "pragmatic, transaction-focused, insistent and highly reliable".

Clients hold this squad in high regards, because it "takes the initiative to solve our problems and the whole firm is ready to promptly serve, meaning that quality and service do not depend only on a single individual". The integrated pan-Baltic network is another aspect of the firm that the clients appreciated.
