  1. Splits and team departures;
  2. Shrunken budgets and retaining sophisticated work inside legal departments;
  3. Cost-cutting and aggressive cost control measures;

Olga Usenko, editor-in chief and head of the project, noted that law firms demonstrated changes in legal business operations, management of fee earners and support staff, client relationships, and rethinking of their marketing and investment strategies. “We observe a truly positive sign – firms invest in client experience and retention, boosting the level of client service and permanent availability of core executives. Even more, general counsel outline that law firms in Ukraine often preserve an even more client-centered approach as compared to other jurisdictions”, she said.

Ukrainian Law Firms. A Handbook for Foreign Clients has been published in English on an annual basis since 2003, and has gained the reputation of being a reliable market guide to top law firms and practitioners in Ukraine.
