Centil Law Firm

Centil Law Firm is a leading full-service law firm, advising within the jurisdictions of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, with particular expertise in banking and finance, energy, M&A, tax, infrastructure and dispute resolution. Centil's 45 lawyers have advised on complex transactions across the region, working with both international and domestic clients on pioneering projects that range from multi-billion dollar energy projects to ground-breaking public-private partnership projects. We work with leading international law firms from the UK, USA and EU as their local "branch"​ within the region. Centil's in-house research group Centil Advisory provides consultancy and analytical support on a broad range of issues, including industry and sector-specific analysis, corporate governance and public administration, sustainability and risk assessment, and management and strategic planning for entities operating or intending to operate in the Central Asian region. Centil Law Firm and its lawyers are continually recognised by industry-leading legal directories such as Chambers and Partners, The Legal 500 and The Law Society, which awarded Centil the "Excellence in International Legal Services"​ award at the 2016 Excellence Awards. This award reflects the numerous ground-breaking initiatives implemented by the firm over the past year, including our newly established in-house research and analysis group, development of innovative project management software, and, of course, the high-quality legal work we undertake for our international clients. Centil was also shortlisted for The Lawyer's "Law firm of the year: Russia, Ukraine & CIS" Award in both 2017 and 2018.
