Kirill Ležeiko

Senior Associate

Kirill Ležeiko is focused on financing transactions and financial regulation, approaching each mandate with a practical, business‑oriented mindset. His deep understanding of the financial sector, combined with the ability to translate legal complexity into clear and commercially sound solutions, makes him a highly valued advisor in matters that require precision, strategic thinking and strong negotiation skills.


In addition to financial regulation and transactional work, Kirill supports companies in broader strategic legal matters – including the management of complex projects, the development of corporate governance structures and the mitigation of regulatory and legal risks. His experience as both an external advisor and an in‑house legal leader at major international groups provides him with a unique understanding of situations where legal, regulatory and business considerations must be balanced seamlessly.
