Ukraine's Evris law firm, which opened in 2017, has opened its first foreign office — a representative office in Singapore.
According to a statement on the Evris website, "Singapore is ranked as the world’s easiest place to do business by the World Bank. Singapore is also a strategic location for many international companies and a massive regional hub for global commerce, finance, transportation, and legal services. Having a sound financial system and a stable political environment, Singapore offers an excellent springboard to expand business in Asia. Many global corporations chose to locate their headquarters in Singapore because of benefits like attractive corporate tax rates, availability of funding, talented workforce, flexible immigration policies for expatriates, advanced infrastructure, low crime rate, etc. That’s why our team decided to open a representative office in Singapore."
The office will managed by Counsel Liubomyr Muzhyk, who has recently relocated to the Southeast Asian island city-state. According to Evris, "Muzhyk deals primarily "with the closure of significant transactions related to the transition of real estate due to the conclusion of economic contracts, the protection of the rights of creditors in the recovery of mortgaged property in extrajudicial order, and also gives legal advice on protecting the legal integrity of the business."
