Date: 19.12.2024

On 18 December 2024, VEB Center hosted a ceremony to announce the Experts of Law Rating, the first national rating of legal advisors for development projects by Expert RA and Expert Business Solutions JSC with the support of the State Development Corporation VEB.RF and information support of Expert Magazine.

In 2024, the rating was held for the first time. It included 52 companies with more than 300 projects reviewed in 12 practices.

KIAP, Attorneys at Law, were recommended in TOP 20 companies in the Litigation and Arbitration category.

The key feature of Experts of Law Rating is a comprehensive review of companies involved in infrastructure or development projects worth 10 billion RUB and more. Development projects are projects implemented by private companies or companies partially owned by the Government and aimed at developing the country, its standard of living, cities and regions. These are social projects rather than profit-generating or development projects of a particular company, which can be supported by lawyers.

In addition, the rated companies were to confirm that they are involved in development projects in priority sectors, namely manufacturing, infrastructure support for spatial economic and social development, construction, communications and telecommunications, IT and data processing technologies, science, education, healthcare, agriculture, waste collection, processing and disposal, etc.
