Starting from February, law firms PwC Legal and TEGOS joined forces to bring new energy and strength to the legal services market in Estonia and the entire Baltic region. As a result of the merger, the TEGOS team in Estonia grew to 82 people.
The expanding law firm, now among the largest in Estonia, will be able to offer clients more alternatives in handling large business transactions and complex disputes. The larger team also allows for better distribution of workload and, through specialisation, to increase efficiency and maintain high quality.
TEGOS is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, which means we can face the anniversary year with positive news and even more energy!
