Oleksandr V.

Business Lawyer | AI & Tech | Corporate, Funds, Web3 | LLM & MBA

Hello, I'm Oleksandr, a seasoned international business lawyer with a strong track record of providing practical, cross-border legal support to clients worldwide. I have been working for years in London and am now based in Spain (enjoying work from remote jurisdiction, with UK and US strong presence). This background gives me a deep understanding of UK, US and EMEA legal landscapes. I hold both an LLM and an MBA and work in a modern, business-oriented and tech-savvy manner. Key Areas of Expertise: Cross-Border Legal Support I support M&A transactions, international tax matters and ongoing legal operations in the US, UK, EEA (Estonia, Netherlands, Lithuania, Poland, Cyprus), Switzerland, UAE, offshore jurisdictions (BVI, Seychelles, Bahamas, Panama), Qatar, KSA, Singapore, Ukraine and others. This includes cross-border corporate and tax planning, restructuring (e.g. UK → EU/Hong Kong), permanent-establishment and VAT/HMRC risk, founders’ tax residency and substance planning, and multi-country business-nexus and IP/website ownership clean-up. Corporate Structuring, Tax & Business Contracts I prepare clear written opinions and plans for corporate structuring and tax optimisation, handle multi-jurisdiction incorporations, governance and shareholder arrangements, and cross-border reorganisations. I draft and negotiate Advisory Agreements, Shareholders Agreements, SAFE/convertible notes, MSAs, NDAs, SaaS and licensing agreements, JV and services agreements, employment/contractor agreements, DPAs and commercial T&Cs. I regularly provide “startup legal packs” combining formation, founders’ arrangements, IP assignment and baseline contracts. Policies, Data Protection & Compliance I draft Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policies, Cookies Policies, AML/CTF and sanctions policies, internal compliance manuals (HR, InfoSec, operations) and product disclaimers. I design GDPR/UK GDPR frameworks (RoPA, DPIAs, SCCs/IDTAs, international transfers, DSR workflows), advise on CCPA, DMCA and EUCD, implement cookie and consent solutions, and align privacy, AML/KYC and vendor contracts so your compliance is workable in practice. AI, Tech, IP, NFT, Blockchain & Fintech I advise AI and deep-tech businesses, including work with HeyGen-based and similar video/voice AI solutions for large enterprises, mid-market companies and startups. This covers IP ownership, training-data and content-rights issues, licensing/usage models and risk allocation in big, middle and small commercial contracts. I also support Web3 and fintech projects: token design and route-to-market (Reg D/Reg S/MiCA), crypto-asset licensing and registrations (EU/UK/UAE/HK/SG), MiCA CASP registrations, FCA/MLR crypto registrations, and broader payments, brokerage and investment-services compliance. Investments, Funds & Capital Markets I support shareholders’ investment procedures and deal execution, including fundraising documentation (SAFE/notes, equity term sheets, investor-ready data rooms and disclosure schedules). I work with US securities law and SEC/Blue Sky rules (Form D/Reg D, Reg S, Reg CF/Reg A contexts), IA/ERA registration, Form ADV, and compliance manuals. I assist with US, Cayman and EU/UK fund formation and operations (GP/LP and LLC structures, PPMs, subscription docs, CIMA matters, AIFMD/UCITS and NPPR/Article 42 notifications). International Projects, Tenders & Regulatory Work I have delivered complex international projects in the US, EU/EEA, UK, Singapore, Ukraine, Australia, Estonia and Hong Kong, including public procurement and tenders, reorganisations and multi-country regulatory analysis. I cooperate with authorities such as the US Secretary of State, SEC, FCA, EU and local regulators on filings, licences and ongoing compliance. This includes financial-services authorisations, MiCA and AML/CTF frameworks, gambling and remote-gaming licences, crypto-asset registrations and the rollout of practical compliance programmes and governance maps. Startup & Scale-Up Legal Support I act as external counsel to startups and scale-ups, helping them move from idea to investor-ready and then to international expansion. Typical mandates include structure and jurisdiction selection, formation or redomiciliation, founder and cap-table arrangements, brand and IP protection (trademarks in UK/EU/US/Madrid, IP transfers and enforcement/DMCA takedowns), key commercial contracts, employment and contractor frameworks, and the legal side of going global. I take pride in my diverse client portfolio (from early-stage startups to established international businesses), which reflects my ability to adapt to different industries and risk profiles. My in-depth legal expertise, coupled with a global perspective and hands-on experience, allows me to deliver clear, business-focused legal solutions for clients in the UK, US, EMEA and beyond. I look forward to working with you and helping your business navigate complex international law and regulation with clarity and confidence.
