About

Provided by Eversheds Sutherland

Eversheds Sutherland Bitāns advises leading Latvian and international companies on complex Corporate, Commercial, and M&A matters, including capital markets, group restructurings, and cross-border investments.

As Latvia’s corporate landscape evolves with increased capital flows and regulatory demands, we support clients across a wide range of industries in navigating high-stakes transactions and strategic business decisions. Our lawyers bring a business-oriented mindset, deep sector insight, and a collaborative, cross-practice approach to every engagement.

We routinely assist clients with multi-jurisdictional M&A, joint ventures, reorganisations, and strategic investments. Known for combining technical excellence with commercial pragmatism, our team helps clients manage legal risk while advancing their long-term business objectives—both in Latvia and across key international markets.

Our clients operate in sectors including transport and infrastructure, defence and security, energy, finance and investments, real estate and construction, technology and communications, and consumer and retail.
