Sorainen successfully represented Dujotekana, one of the largest companies in Lithuania operating in the natural gas market, in a court dispute against a former employee regarding illegal dismissal and payment of severance compensation amounting to approx EUR 1 million. Although the decision of the court of first instance was favourable to the employee, the Lithuanian Supreme Court adopted a final ruling in favour of Dujotekana. The case was unique due to the huge amount in dispute for the Lithuanian market.
The Sorainen team led by partner Kæstutis Švirinas consisted of senior associates Jurgita Karvelë and Jonas Sakalauskas.
