Our team welcomes a new member – attorney-at-law Dr Lina Aleknaitė-van der Molen, an expert in the fields of finance and capital markets, joins the firm as a counsel. She will advise clients on financing transactions and securities, as well as investment fund formation and asset management.

 

“Lithuanian capital markets have recently been breaking the ice for change, both through government initiatives and legislative amendments. I am excited to be joining law firm Sorainen at this time. I am confident that with this team, we will be able to offer the highest level of service to both Lithuanian businesses seeking to raise capital market funding and investors in structuring and protecting their rights,” Lina says.

“We are very happy to welcome Lina to our team, and I have no doubt that she will fit in very well. Lina’s joining will significantly enhance our expertise in capital markets and funds and will enable us to better prepare for the projected capital market recovery in the foreseeable future,” says Augustas Klezys, partner with Sorainen and co-head of the firm’s Finance & Insurance team.

With more than 14 years of experience in financial and capital markets, Lina has advised a number of banks operating in Lithuania, worked closely with several of the largest Lithuanian venture capital funds, and assisted issuers in resolving complex conflict situations. International legal directory The Legal 500 has recognised Lina as one of the leading experts in banking, finance and capital markets in Lithuania. She also holds a PhD in Law from the Central European University.
