About us

PRAGNUM is a project-oriented law firm founded in 2006. It is ranked among the best law firms in Ukraine, and since 2017 it has been internationally recognised as one of the leaders in judicial support for business in Ukraine.

Our advantages

1
Project-based approach

We have moved away from the classical provision of services within abstract legal practices. We specialise in comprehensive tasks of high complexity, which have various areas of legal practice tightly intertwined, with the sole purpose of achieving the result the client needs rather than simply providing a service.

2
17 years of experience in implementing complex projects

There’s no need for our clients to figure out what kind of lawyer they need to solve their specific issue. We form the best possible project teams for any purpose, from supporting your day-to-day operations to resolving complex conflicts.  PRAGNUM experience is extensively presented on our website.

3
Partnership in risky projects

We are ready to take full responsibility, including financial, for the results and share risks with the client in particularly complex cases with an obviously unpredictable resolution.
