About me
I am a member of our Corporate and M&A team, with in-depth specialisation in the fields of corporate, M&A and financing. As an idea-driven lawyer, I am passionate about project management and all aspects of working on a transaction, from exploring investment opportunities and leading various workstreams to advising on integration.
Professional highlights
Complex transactional and corporate experience. I have co-headed legal teams and participated as a legal expert in projects related to cross-border mergers and acquisitions, international financing, multijurisdictional incorporations and security arrangements. This allowed me to gain valuable experience in project management and making transactions happen. I feel fortunate to be on a team which has advised probably the most complex projects that the region has ever seen.
Among market leaders in M&A transactions. International M&A database Mergermarket ranks me among top 20 individual lawyers by the total number of advised major M&A transactions in the Baltics (credited for 17 transactions with a total disclosed value of EUR 355 million during 2005-2019).
Client-focused approach. Regardless of whether I provide counselling to a large multinational or a small local family business, I am keen to focus on actual client needs and apply a client-centred approach.
Commercial nous. Although not that common, commercial nous must be combined with professional legal skills in a lawyer’s everyday work, as I try to demonstrate in every step of my professional life.
Knowledge sharing. With a strong belief that constant knowledge sharing makes us better practitioners, I am an enthusiastic promoter of the culture and tools of knowledge sharing across our firm, be it a traditional debriefing or a new legal-tech or AI platform.
