Denton Wilde Sapte Creates St Petersburg Association
Denton Wilde Sapte has added an important strategic link to its market-leading network in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) by forming an association with St Petersburg-based law firm, Duvernoix Legal.
The association adds to Denton Wilde Sapte's CIS practice, comprised of 77 fee-earners and a network of offices in Almaty, Moscow and Tashkent. It also evidences the firm's strong commitment to the region as well as the growing importance of St Petersburg in the Russian market.
"St Petersburg is becoming a significant commercial centre, attracting major investment from inside Russia and overseas.
As one of St Petersburg's leading independent firms, Duvernoix Legal will add an important facet to our presence in this key market and the combination of their Russian client base with our international one offers both firms scope for expansion," says Denton Wilde Sapte's Chief Executive, Howard Morris.
"This association will deliver some very exciting opportunities to both parties, and I look forward to working closely with the offices across Denton Wilde Sapte's international network," says Duvernoix Legal's managing partner Egor Noskov, who specialises in corporate, tax, litigation and real estate advice.
