-- Lateral Hire Expands Firm's Global Projects Practice in Russia

Leading mergers & acquisitions lawyer Mikhail Semyonov joined Baker Botts today in its Moscow office and will become a partner in the firm's Global Projects department effective January 1, 2014.

Semyonov has spent more than 11 years representing clients in major M&A and energy transactions in Russia and has extensive experience in the establishment of joint ventures for both Russian-based and international clients.  Over the last two years, he has advised multinational energy clients regarding some of the largest and most innovative investments being made in the oil and gas industry in Russia. The 2013 edition of Legal 500 notes that Semyonov 'is excellent at the detail and has expert knowledge'.

"Mikhail enhances our strength in providing counsel to clients on complex M&A transactions," said Maxim Levinson, Partner in Charge of the Moscow office for Baker Botts.

"Our recruitment of Mikhail demonstrates our continued commitment to maintaining the Moscow office as a global resource to our clients in the region or who are doing business here."

Mikhail recently advised Rosneft in relation to the agreements with ExxonMobil and Statoil for joint development of difficult-to-extract resources of hydrocarbons in Russia. Other notable transactions included advising Gazprom on the acquisition of Sibneft (Gazpromneft) and Huadian, one of China's major state owned power companies, on the formation together with TGK-2 of a joint venture project company to develop a 450MWt gas fueled power plant in the Yaroslaval region of Russia.

In addition to his M&A and joint venture work, Semyonov's practice includes providing corporate and transactional guidance to clients such as Unilever, Inchcape and PepsiCo.

Prior to joining Baker Botts, Semyonov was with the Moscow office of Linklaters as counsel. He earned his legal degree with honours from the Moscow State University.
