IMD Solicitors provide individual and business legal services to Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Latvian, Czech and Slovak communities throughout England, Wales and abroad.

It is a speedy promotion for civil and commercial litigation and general commercial lawyer Olexandr, who joined the firm a year ago. He has developed a strong commercial client base, advising Russian, Ukrainian and English-speaking business clients both in the UK and abroad.

Olexandr started his professional career in 2011 at Horwich Farrelly Solicitors as litigation executive in their defendant fraud department. He then took up an 18-month training contract, completing seats in real estate & commercial, employment and defendant insurance litigation.  He qualified in September 2013 and joined IMD Solicitors in June 2016.

Marcin Durlak, senior partner and head of commercial at IMD, says: ‘We are delighted to welcome Olexandr as partner of the firm. In the short time that he has been with us, he has made a significant impact not only in his practice area but by also assisting in the development and growth of the firm as a whole.’
