In August 2008, a new law firm named ‘Volkov Koziakov & Partners’ was created as a result of the merger of two well-known Ukrainian law firms – ‘Volkov & Partners’ and ‘Sergiy Koziakov & Partners’.
The firm Sergiy Koziakov and Partners was founded in 1994 and is one of the leaders in the fields of judicial contest, investment and international trading law, and antimonopoly regulation.
Volkov and Partners Law Firm was founded in 2005, and in a short space of time became one of the leaders among Ukrainian law firms in such practice fields as corporate law, mergers and acquisitions, antimonopoly regulation and real estate, aviation, oil and gas.
Both firms have earned an exceptional reputation during these years among both their Ukrainian and international clients as well as with their legal colleagues. This has been acknowledged several times by the media both in Ukraine and abroad, and also by rating and information systems including IFLR 1000, Chambers Global, Chambers Europe, Global Council 3000 and PLC Which Lawyer.
As a result of the development of both firms’ businesses, the volume and complexity of the legal services which were required of them had consistently grown. To support the high standard of our legal services – which is the main principle of our lawyers’ work, we have embraced the necessity to broaden the sphere of our activity and legal practice. This was the main reason for the joining of two groups of lawyers within a new company – Volkov Koziakov and Partners Law Firm.
Now Volkov Koziakov and Partners offers its clients a full spectrum of legal services, and close cooperation with many influential international law firms. It also provides the benefits of membership to organisations such as TAGLaw, IFA, and the International Business Law Consortium (IBLC), which allows us to effectively delegate projects that encompass several different jurisdictions.
Our clients include influential and established domestic and international companies, and organs of state authority.
