ABOUT US
The law firm of M. Oiknine & Co. was founded by Adv. Michael Oiknine, following a distinguished career and leadership role at one of Israel’s leading law firms. The firm was established with a clear vision: to create a professional, sharp, and effective legal home that provides its clients with a combination of broad and in-depth professional expertise, genuine understanding of each client’s specific needs, and the personal attention of a boutique firm.
The attorneys at M. Oiknine & Co. possess deep expertise across a wide range of civil and commercial legal fields, including in providing ongoing legal counsel, representation in litigation and dispute resolution proceedings, and representing clients in complex transactions.
The firm’s litigation team has extensive experience representing clients and managing complex civil and commercial disputes across a broad spectrum of legal areas, including real estate, contract law, construction and infrastructure (including contractor claims in large-scale construction and infrastructure projects), corporate law, technology-related disputes, and matters involving complex financial and accounting aspects, such as shareholder disputes and corporate control battles.
The litigation team also specializes in representing clients in administrative law matters, including issues relating to competition and tenders in the infrastructure, regulatory, and communications sectors – from participation in tenders and proceedings before tender committees to representation in administrative petitions.
The firm’s corporate and commercial team has many years of experience representing companies, entrepreneurs, and investors at all stages of business activity, from establishing new ventures and negotiating a wide range of commercial agreements, through ongoing legal counsel and day-to-day legal support, to acquisitions, disposals, investments, and other strategic transactions. The firm’s clients include leading companies and businesses across all sectors of the economy, including finance, venture capital, construction and infrastructure, high-tech, energy, gas and fuel, import, export and distribution, real estate, medical cannabis, defense export, government tenders, and more. The firm regularly represents buyers and sellers in M&A transactions, advising on deal structure, drafting and negotiating transaction documents, managing the process through signing and closing, and bringing together the legal disciplines and commercial considerations that complex transactions involve. With a particularly strong international focus, the team advises foreign companies and investors on Israeli matters, Israeli businesses on overseas transactions and projects, and multinational groups on matters spanning multiple jurisdictions. The team regularly leads and coordinates cross-border workstreams, working with foreign counsel and in-house legal teams across different legal systems.
The firm’s Real Estate team has extensive experience advising on complex real estate transactions and projects including residential, commercial and industrial real estate. The firm provides comprehensive legal counsel throughout all stages of a transaction or project, from structuring the legal and commercial framework and conducting negotiations, through the drafting of all required agreements, to closing and implementation. The practice encompasses, among other matters, the acquisition, sale and development of real estate, combination transactions and joint ventures between property owners, developers and commercial parties, income-producing real estate transactions, urban renewal projects, construction agreements, engagements with contractors, consultants and suppliers, as well as real estate financing and bank financing transactions.
