EDITORIAL: INSOLVENCY & RESTRUCTURING IN THE CIS
Who's Who Legal
Jan 15 2010
Following the global economic downturn, insolvency and restructuring
work has become an increasingly prominent part of many lawyers'
practice and there is no exception for those working in the CIS.
Twenty individuals are included.
Seven Moscow-based lawyers are listed in this chapter, making the
Russian contingent the strongest in terms of numbers. Irina Mashlenko
is included from Allen & Overy LLP and she is "very experienced"
in the restructuring of domestic banks and corporate entities and
also advises creditors. "Eminent lawyer" Philipp Windemuth of White &
Case LLP is included and Chadbourne & Parke LLP's Mikhail Rozenberg is
considered by peers to be "a superlative practitioner", whose recent
work has included advising international financial institutions
on debt restructuring procedures. The "very distinguished" Sergey
Komolov from Hogan & Hartson LLP is another high-profile nominee. At
PricewaterhouseCoopers Andrei Narutsky leads the Moscow practice
group for corporate restructuring and fiduciary services. Squire
Sanders & Dempsey LLP's Patrick Brooks "has substantial experience"
in restructuring, particularly in the steel, energy, automotive and
chemical sectors and Monastyrsky, Zyuba, Semenov & Partners provides
Alexander Zyuba, who is "a first-class lawyer" for our list.
In Belarus, Kiryl Apanasevich from Baltic law firm Sorainen is "a
prominent figure". Konstantin Mikhel is managing partner of Vlasova
Mikhel & Partners and peers consider him to be "outstanding".
Stepanovski Papakul & Partners' Maksim Kosachev is "a skilled
specialist" in this area and Sergei Makarchuk, the managing partner
of Austrian powerhouse Cerha Hempel Spiegelfeld Hlawati FLLC's Minsk
office, is "a leader in the field."
Ukraine has three nominees, one of which is Olga Khoroshylova of
Magisters. She is "excellent for distressed assets work" and is based
in the firm's Kiev office. The "top notch" Michael Shkabry is the chair
of Jurvneshservice's bankruptcy and insolvency practice and Stanislaw
Skrypnyck of Lavrynovych & Partners is "a well-known practitioner."
Two Moldovan lawyers are included in this chapter, both of them from
Gladei & Partners. Roger Gladei and Vitalie Ciofu are reputed to be
"skilled, hardworking and a pleasure to deal with."
In Armenia, Vahagn Mikayelyan is the partner in charge of Grant
Thornton Amyot's legal and tax advisory assignments and is considered
"a proficient insolvency expert".
Kazakhstan is home to three highly rated experts. The "very fine" Maxim
Telemtayev supervises Macleod Dixon ELP's practice in the Republic of
Kazakhstan and in other Central Asian countries and directly manages
the Almaty office. Vladimir Furman from McGuireWoods Kazakhstan LLP is
"first class" with particular experience of restructuring of holding
companies and the forced and voluntary liquidation of companies. At
Bracewell & Giuliani LLP, Zhanar Kassymbekova is regarded as a "top
notch corporate restructuring lawyer".
