Please say why you should be considered for the award.: Galt aims at simplicity and efficiency of getting tasks done and avoids “legalizing” and preparing long documents that are not necessary. Under one roof Galt keeps lawyers and tax advisors – this helps work on deals as it reduces difficulties resulting from the necessity to maintain communication between various advisory firms. Galt strives to keep close relations with clients to the extent that if it turns out that for any reasons cooperation may not be fully satisfactory for both parties, change of team members working for a given client or (sometimes) giving up cooperation on a given task is proposed.
