‘I prefer TGS Baltic's employment practice over the employment practices of other top local law firms. TGS Baltic is faster, more pragmatic, and more agile. The firm offered solutions and strategies explaining the pros and cons. The advice allowed me to quickly make informed decisions, execute them, and thus resolve the issues altogether without wasting time, money, and, sometimes, reputation.’
