Ulysses formed last year after Oleh Marchenko left Magisters to form his own practice and brought a number of his colleagues with him. Marchenko is highly regarded by his peers for his ability in both M&A and corporate tax matters and these areas represent significant sources of work for the firm. Cross-border structuring and tax planning are also strengths of the practice and both were important in a recent matter completed for Teva Pharmaceuticals. After the acquisition of German pharmaceutical company ratiopharm, Ulysses advised Teva on the integration of the companies' Ukrainian businesses. The structure used in the integration of the merged entity into the group was crucial to ensure beneficial tax treatment and the team involved had to consider issues relation to intellectual property, corporation tax and VAT throughout. The firm's clients include major Ukrainian companies and multinationals such as Microsoft.
