URVISTA

What URVISTA does

URVISTA is an Attorney Association (Адвокатське об'єднання) operating as a multidisciplinary law firm headquartered in Kyiv, Ukraine, with a secondary office in Morden/London (United Kingdom). The firm traces its origin to 2005, underwent multiple rebranding phases before adopting the URVISTA brand and the Attorney Association form in 2019, and is led by Managing Partner Natela Nezhenets-Chekanova alongside Partner Nadiia Remizovska, Partner Oleksandr Pidkova, Head of London Office Elvira Tesliuk, and Advisor Pavlo Matiushko. Service delivery is human-partner-led across corporate and individual mandates; the firm does not operate a proprietary software or AI platform.

The firm's offering spans approximately ten core practice areas — corporate law / M&A, restructuring and bankruptcy, tax practice, compliance and risk management, currency control, antitrust and competition, international arbitration, criminal law (including white-collar), family and inheritance law, mediation, civil and real estate law, labor law, and enforcement of decisions — and serves corporate clients across at least eight industry verticals (agribusiness, banking and finance, insurance, trade and distribution, energy and natural resources, manufacturing, construction, and real estate), as well as private individual clients. Notable engagements include acting for the Doğuş–Alarko–EDA joint venture as general-contractor counsel on Boryspol Airport Terminal D, defending a 700M UAH enterprise from a hostile takeover, and recovering $40M+ in assets for a manufacturing client.

URVISTA generates revenue through professional services billed on project, hourly, or retainer engagements with no publicly disclosed pricing. Its go-to-market relies on a Kyiv-based direct channel plus a London office dedicated to cross-border mandates, supported by international legal awards (Acquisition International, CorporateLiveWire, Global Law Experts, Corporate INTL, The Lawyers Global, Global Business Insight, 2020–2021) and a website with online booking. The firm is privately held by founding/equity partners with no disclosed parent, external investors, or subsidiaries.
