Hillmont Partners was founded by British and Ukrainian partners with a view to providing high quality legal services to investors and businesses operating, or looking to operate in Ukraine. Hillmont ensures its clients are well informed enough of the risks involved in investing in Ukraine and the mitigants and remedies that can ensure their interests are protected.

On the one hand, it draws upon the skills and knowledge of corporate lawyers and litigators that have successfully defended multinational companies from corporate raiding, raised litigation funding and represented clients in the European Court for Human Rights and arbitration institutions both in Ukraine and abroad.
