KOROSTELEV & PARTNERS

Corporate Governance and Outsourced General Counsel

Keep a Russian subsidiary operating with clear authority and reliable legal support.

We help foreign groups manage Russian subsidiaries when expatriate management or an in-house legal team is no longer available. We establish decision-making procedures, delegated authority and practical reporting arrangements.

Our support includes corporate approvals, directors’ responsibilities, contracts, employment-related coordination and day-to-day legal advice. A defined scope and reporting cadence make the engagement predictable.

Frequently asked questions

When should we involve legal counsel?

Before signing binding terms or transferring funds. Early review identifies ownership, approval, tax and payment issues that may change the structure.

What information should we provide first?

Please share a short description of the objective, the parties and ownership chain, the assets involved and the intended timetable. Sensitive documents can follow after conflict checks and confidentiality arrangements.

Can you work with our advisers abroad?

Yes. We coordinate the Russian workstream with your legal, tax and financial advisers and agree responsibilities at the start.
