Following extensive legal market research published in Kommersant’s themed supplement, EPAM tops the largest law firms ratings in Russia. In addition, the Firm is listed as leaders in litigation and arbitration and named as one of the two strongest tax law and tax litigation practices. 

For the second year in a row the Firm tops the list of Russia’s 50 largest law firms by earnings. The research method description says that earnings are the “key indicator in terms of a law firm’s business economics…showing that the firm is very popular and its services are in great demand”.

Kommersant also publishes industry-related ratings for a number of law firms’ key activities, and EPAM has been an absolute leader in litigation and arbitration. Moreover, the Firm was named as one of the two strongest tax law and tax litigation advisers. 

A monetary approach has also been applied to rating of the leaders in particular areas of law: law firms’ earnings by key practices have been compared to the absolute amounts of their competitors; international ratings and client references were used as additional criteria.

EPAM’ top positions in the Kommersant ratings are a sequence of its successful beginning of the year. It should be noted that the Firm was awarded at The Lawyer European Awards in a number of categories. Besides, the Firm tops Pravo.RU-300, Best Lawyers (by number of references in Russia), and is the only Russian firm representing in international ratings Global Arbitration Review 100 and The Lawyer European 100.
