Vasil Kisil & Partners Expands Its Team of Partners

With effect from January 1, 2021, Valeriya Savchuk, Counsel, will join Vasil Kisil and Partners’ team of partners – such decision was made at the Partners’ Board Meeting.

Valeriya Savchuk is a counsel specializing in labor and employment law and labor litigation. Leading international legal directories Chambers Europe, Legal 500 and Best Lawyers have ranked Valeriya among Ukraine’s leading lawyers in labor and employment. Valeriya chairs the HR Committee of the European Business Association and is the Deputy Chairperson of the Labor Law Committee of the Ukrainian Bar Association. Valeriya joined Vasil Kisil & Partners in 2011.

She commented on her appointment saying: “I am sincerely grateful to my colleagues and partners for the recognition and trust, and it is a great responsibility and an interesting new challenge for me. The path from internship to partnership was not easy although at the same time inspiring. Therefore, I will be happy to continue working on projects, achieving success for clients and developing the firm’s Labor and Employment Practice Group now as a partner.”

“Valeriya Savchuk’s promotion to a partner is a vivid example that rising from trainee to partner is quite real if you have aspirations, healthy professional ambitions and appropriate “ammunition” to succeed,” said Andriy Stelmashchuk, Managing Partner.
