About me
I am a senior associate with the firm’s Dispute Resolution and Risk Management practice in Latvia. I specialise in national and cross-border civil disputes, international and local arbitration proceedings, as well as recognition and enforcement of foreign court decisions and arbitral awards in Latvia.
Professional highlights
International Trade I have in-depth expertise and practical experience in representing clients’ interests in international trade, particularly concerning international carriage and the purchase of goods. Together with the Sorainen team, we regularly represent clients in international arbitration proceedings at leading arbitration institutions (ICC, LCIA, SCC, VIAC).
Foreign Investment Protection The Sorainen team regularly advises and provides legal opinions to clients regarding the protection of foreign investors.
I have assisted the client E energia in achieving a favorable judgment against the Republic of Latvia in the first-ever annulment process of an International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) arbitration award involving the Latvian state.
Sports Law I have always been very enthusiastic about sports. Professional athletes, sports clubs, and federations face a variety of legal challenges. I have professional experience in advising and representing athletes, as well as football and basketball clubs.
