About the service

Against the backdrop of escalating sanctions pressure, we help clients minimize risks, preserve business operations, and protect investments. Our services include sanctions applicability analysis, preparation for obtaining various approvals (including from the Government Commission), development of structures to mitigate secondary sanctions exposure, as well as representation in disputes involving contract termination asserted on sanctions grounds. We actively draw on U.S. and EU case law, where courts have rejected sanctions as an automatic justification for terminating contractual obligations.
