Life Sciences & Healthcare Lawyers

We work with and have established long-term relationships with the top 100 life sciences and healthcare companies in the areas of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, biotechnology, agriculture and food, including the top 20 global pharmaceutical companies and nine out of the top ten global medical device companies.

Our life sciences and healthcare teams in Central and Eastern Europe advise leading global business groups in the sector on transactions, commercial agreements, compliance, investigations and litigation, very often across multiple jurisdictions in the region and beyond. We can help you to navigate the regulatory landscape and to ensure compliance with both local laws and global policies.

Our co-operation with the team was delightful.
