On 11 March 2010, exactly 15 years ago, Andrey Korelskiy, Konstantin Astafiev and Ilya Ischuk signed the deed of incorporation.
This was the starting point of Moscow-based KIAP Attorneys at Law, or KIAP (formerly Korelskiy, Ischuk, Astafiev & Partners) as you know it today.
Over the past 15 years, the company has become an established leader of the Russian legal market and a reliable partner for its clients.
"Teamwork is a kind of team sports, where success depends on interaction and cooperation rather than only individual records. This principle was the cornerstone of KIAP's transformation from a startup to an adult company, where the contribution of each team member matters for the overall result. Over the past 15 years, experience and expertise have become key factors of success," notes Andrey Korelskiy, KIAP's Managing Partner and co-founder, in his interview for Corporate Lawyer Magazine.
Sustainability, a close-knit team and consistently high quality of services provided over many years is what KIAP is praised for by clients and partners, who have been with the company for many years now.
"15 years is an important milestone in our history. We are proud that we have been able to build a team of professionals who show their excellence and dedication to the cause every day. This anniversary is both a reason to celebrate our achievements and an opportunity to look to the future and set new ambitious goals," adds Ilya Ischuk, KIAP's Partner and co-founder.
Throughout its history, KIAP has been acclaimed by the professional community. The company is included in leading Russian and international ratings, including Pravo-300, Kommersant, Expert RA, The Legal 500, Chambers Europe, Best Lawyers, etc., and its associates consistently win personal awards for their contribution to the development of the legal market.
The Firm's Partner and co-founder Konstantin Astafiev says, "15 years ago we started with an idea that seemed daring even to us. Today, this is no longer just an idea; it is a reality that we have created together with our team and clients. There are new challenges ahead, and we are ready for them. We believe in our team and look forward with confidence."
KIAP thanks its clients and partners for their trust and support and appreciates its employees dedication, involvement, and love for their work.
