Webinar "Russia Sanctions Litigation: combatting litigation and mitigating risk"

12:00pm—1:00pm (London time) / 2:00pm—3:00pm (Moscow time)

****Dear Ladies and Gentlemen****,

****ALRUD Law Firm**** and ****Simmons & Simmons LLP**** are honoured to invite you to the webinar:

"Russia Sanctions Litigation: combatting litigation and mitigating risk"

The webinar will be useful to a wide range of professionals from the offices of foreign companies doing business in Russia or with Russian companies, as well as the foreign shareholders of Russian companies.

Since February 2022, western sanctions authorities are estimated to have frozen c.$60 billion in private assets of sanctioned Russian persons.

In response, the Russian state enacted laws purporting to allow sanctioned Russian persons to seek recovery of those assets before the Russian Courts. This has spawned well over 100 claims against non-Russian institutions, contrary to jurisdiction agreements.  

This places the affected non-Russian institutions in a complex scenario. Sanctions compliance, risk mitigation and litigation strategy all need to be considered.

In this webinar, ****Adam Brown****, ****Basil Woodd-Walker**** (Simmons & Simmons LLP) and Sergey Petrachkov, Polina Perova (ALRUD law firm) will explore the recent trends in Russia sanctions litigation, including:

• a recap of this trend;

• how to design a strategy to combat litigation in Russia;

• how to seek an anti-suit injunction;

• how to mitigate risks of enforcement of a foreign judgment.
