The case of a Russian employee who defeated the US Embassy in court may have a detrimental effect on the activities of foreign employers in Russia. Moscow City Court recovered almost 7 million RUR from the Embassy in favor of Yulia Popova for the illegal dismissal from her job. Experts interviewed by Sekret Firmy think that this case is ruinous to foreign employers who often infringe the rights of Russian employees. Andrey Shugaev, Deputy Chairman of Klishin & Partners Attorneys at Law, confirmed that he had frequently encountered similar cases in the past. Some officials of foreign companies stationed in Russia falsely believe that laws can be easily violated in our country. As demonstrated by Moscow City Court, this is totally inadmissible, added Shugaev.
