The workflow is simple and clear. I'm very happy with the effectiveness of the cooperation because the legal department has much bigger experience and knowledge compared to other legal companies.

Chief Executive Officer in Europe and the US.
Our rating is 5/5 stars for legal services that we have ordered. We were not clear if the license is required, and it is why we have ordered a legal opinion. After we have received the legal opinion we have clearly developed our roadmap and received the necessary financial license. Communication and constant attention from RUE gave a positive impression.
Founder and managing board member
5 stars is my rating. I am very satisfied with your work and assistance and I am happy that you were the company with whom I have concluded a cooperation agreement. The full support from A-Z was provided in acquisition of a ready-made company with investment license. Legal advisory and tax guidance was sufficient and complied with the paid amount.
