About

Provided by Eversheds Sutherland

Over the last decade, Latvia has experienced an unprecedented influx of finance and expansion of capital markets.  We have substantially expanded our legal banking and finance practice to accommodate this trend. 

Our lawyers have successfully represented high-profile clients in a number of groundbreaking business transactions, regulatory matters, and litigations.  

The ongoing market turmoil continues to drive restructurings and internal reorganizations within the banking and finance sector as institutions seek to adjust their operating models to the realities of the new regulatory framework and capitalize on new opportunities. 

Our law firm has provided instrumental advice to several top tier clients in resolving complex issues such as reshaping of bank service lines, launching of investment banking services and structuring of financial and derivative products, including liaison with financial and capital market regulators.
