Our History

ArsLegem was founded in 2011 by Oleksandr Petrov, a former partner at a leading Ukrainian litigation and regulatory firm. In 2012, the firm evolved when Roman Kolos, previously a partner at a major CEE law firm, joined forces with Oleksandr.

From the beginning, ArsLegem was built on a commitment to partner-led service, strategic thinking, and client-focused solutions. Over the years, we have grown into a trusted legal advisor for both Ukrainian and international businesses, including Nordic companies entering the Ukrainian market.
