Public sector and public-private partnership

DEGA PARTNERS provides legal support to state and municipal enterprises, institutions and organisations, as well as to Ukrainian and international companies and investors that work with the public sector or carry out joint projects with it.

Working in the public sector requires taking into account the legal status of its participants, decision-making procedures, the management of state and municipal property, public procurement and regulatory restrictions. These factors directly affect business operations, investment opportunities and the implementation of projects.

Our expertise covers legal support of state and municipal enterprises, legal audits, privatisation, the management of public assets, procurement, public-private partnership and concessions. We combine corporate, commercial, regulatory and infrastructure expertise with the protection of our clients' interests in court.

We help clients find practical legal solutions that take into account the specifics of public regulation, protect property interests and create a proper legal basis for business and investment projects.
