LEGAL 500 TESTIMONIALS 

“This is a truly outstanding team of lawyers in both the approach to their clients and their approach to case preparation. They work closely as a team to ensure that their clients’ needs are put above all other considerations. The team has amongst its number a large breadth of knowledge in both white collar crime and civil law, which is particularly relevant given the overlap in these sorts of cases.”

“Bivonas Law is a niche practice specialising in white collar crime that has a team of very experienced and talented lawyers.”

“Bivonas is one of a handful of teams that combine expertise, impressive and diverse experience with the highest standards of work ethics peculiar to large law firms, while managing to maintain an individual approach for their clients and the flexibility typical of boutique law firms.”

“A boutique firm with a high-value offering for both firms and individuals.”

“Bivonas provides a talented, experienced, and versatile team who can pivot between a host of different disciplines as the case, matter, and client require. The service is boutique, lean, and focused, providing first-rate representation and savvy solution-based approaches that are less often found in many larger firms in the same space. Their overlapping experience in white-collar crime, tax, and regulatory means that matters are viewed from a number of perspectives, and so broad-based advice can be provided.”

“The practice stands out for combining the strategic sophistication and international capability of a large disputes firm with the agility and partner-led focus of a specialist boutique. The team is particularly strong in complex civil fraud, white-collar crime, regulatory investigations, and cross-border disputes, often involving parallel criminal, civil, and reputational issues across multiple jurisdictions. What distinguishes the firm is the quality of its strategic thinking, the speed with which it masters complicated factual material, and its ability to coordinate seamlessly with counsel, experts, forensic advisers, and overseas lawyers in high-stakes matters. The lawyers are commercially astute, tactically sophisticated, and exceptionally collaborative, which makes them particularly effective in fast-moving and document-heavy cases. Clients benefit from direct senior involvement throughout, rather than layered delegation, together with a pragmatic and discreet approach to sensitive disputes and investigations. The practice is also notable for its international reach and modern, flexible approach to case management, including effective use of technology, lean teams, and cross-border collaboration to deliver efficient and highly tailored client service.”

“Strong team with unique experience, easily reachable, fast responding, and capable of providing solutions tailored to the client’s needs.“
