Bristol law firm launches Ukraine Desk to support reconstruction

Bristol law firm Clarke Willmott has launched a dedicated Ukraine Desk to support reconstruction efforts in the war-torn Ukraine.

The desk will assist UK companies seeking to invest in projects across key sectors identified in the UK-Ukraine “100 Year Partnership Agreement”, including infrastructure, energy and renewable energy, agriculture, defence, technology and innovation and healthcare, as well as other sectors where Ukraine requires foreign investment and support.

Clarke Willmott’s Ukraine Desk is headed by orporate partner Oksana Howard, an English-qualified solicitor of Ukrainian origin.

It also advises Ukrainian businesses and individuals looking to operate in the UK, providing comprehensive legal assistance across a broad range of UK legal matters.

“Ukraine’s infrastructure and economy have suffered severe damage as a result of the war,” says Oksana.

“We provide comprehensive, ongoing legal support to UK companies looking to invest in or conduct business in Ukraine with the view to helping to reconstruct Ukraine – from the early stages of a project through to its successful completion.

“Clarke Willmott has also established a trusted network of Ukrainian law firms that offer the local business insight and legal expertise UK companies may require when operating in Ukraine.”
