Andrejs Arnautovs
A lawyer in Riga and head of the law office. We help individuals and businesses solve legal matters in Latvia - from residence permits and company registration to real estate deals and disputes.
Specialisation
Immigration and residence permits, business and companies, real estate, family law, contracts and disputes, inheritance, notarial matters and legalisation of documents. Areas of law meet in a single matter more often than people expect: a property deal runs into family law, a relocation into corporate law. Experience across several areas means such a matter can be run as a whole, instead of sending the client from one specialist to the next.
Education
Master of Laws (Mg. iur., LL.M) with the professional qualification of a lawyer - Riga Graduate School of Law. Bachelor of Law and Political Science (Licence en Droit et Science Politique), France. Practice: three years in France and more than eleven years in Latvia.
Team
Matters are handled by a team of lawyers - trained, qualified specialists, each in their own area and focused on the outcome. A question does not stall because one person is on holiday or busy, and a complex matter is assembled from several people competences.
Languages
Consultations in Latvian, Russian, English, French and Spanish.
Working format
Terms, deadlines and the scope of work are agreed before we start. Many matters - company registration, paperwork, divorce - are handled remotely; coming to Riga is not required. Behind every type of matter is a procedure refined over years: a clear order of steps that does not depend on how busy the day is.
Case handling
A named lawyer runs your matter and stays reachable at every stage - the client is not passed down a chain. Behind that lawyer is a team: on adjacent questions they draw on colleagues, while deadlines and checkpoints are recorded, so nothing is lost between stages.
How we work
Before we start, we agree on the scope, timeline and cost, so the result and the budget are clear in advance. As the case runs, we keep checkpoints and deadlines on record, so its status is visible at any moment, not only at the end.
A large share of our clients are foreigners and entrepreneurs who value transparent communication and the ability to handle matters remotely. Many services - company registration, paperwork, divorce - can be completed at a distance.
The main job of the office is to make the client life simpler. Any legal task should turn out to be straightforward for you: reading the rule, corresponding with the authorities, collecting and preparing documents and watching the deadlines is our side of the work. What is left to you is the decision, not the procedure and the burden of holding it all in your head.
