A New York-qualified lawyer, he has spent more than 20 years in practice, nearly all of them working on deals in Kazakhstan and the wider region.

Vladimir has been at the forefront of digital-asset regulation in Kazakhstan, advising a major international cryptocurrency exchange on its licensing in the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC). Before founding Egen Gregory, he was a corporate partner at Reed Smith, where he opened the firm’s Kazakhstan office, and earlier an international partner at Morgan Lewis. He holds a JD from New York Law School and is ranked by IFLR1000 and Chambers and Partners.
