Centil Law has become one of Kazakhstan’s most prestigious and decorated law firms, having been nominated five times for “Law Firm of the Year: Russia and CIS” by The Lawyer magazine and given the “Excellence in International Legal Services” award twice from the Law Society of England and Wales.
“Our flexibility is what makes us successful,” said Partner Ravshan Adilov, who attributes the firm’s success to its flexibility in delivering top-quality service across three key areas.
“At Centil, we focus on forming lasting relationships rather than just closing deals. This approach has not only fostered trust but also helped us retain major organizations on our client roster.

Flexibility in market coverage
Centil Law’s flexibility is evident in its expansive market reach. Over the past 21 years, the firm has provided top-tier legal services to international businesses, not only in Kazakhstan but also in key jurisdictions like Uzbekistan Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Turkmenistan.
The broad regional presence is complemented by its strategic partnerships with major law firms in global legal hubs such as London, New York, Beijing, and Tokyo
“Our extensive regional coverage gives us a competitive edge. Through seamless horizontal integration of leadership and operations across all our offices, we are not only in tune with what’s happening throughout Central but are abreast of critical global legal trends,” Adilov explained.
Flexibility in client engagement
Centil’s real strength lies in its ability to adapt to client needs while consistently delivering high standards of service across a diverse range of sectors, from energy to industrials and infrastructure.
“Whether it’s providing minor legal advice on short notice or negotiating a multibillion-dollar contract, going the extra mile for our clients has been instrumental in forming long-lasting partnerships. This adaptability is what sets us apart in a competitive legal landscape,” Adilov noted.
Flexibility in pricing
Centil Law extends its flexibility to its pricing strategies, recognizing that long-term relationships are more valuable than short-term gains. The firm is innovative in its approach to pricing, aiming to ease the financial burden on its client without compromising on service quality.
“At Centil, we focus on forming lasting relationships rather than just closing deals. A few years ago, we introduced a ‘pay-as-you-wish’ pricing model, allowing clients to set the cost of our services based on their satisfaction level. This approach has not only fostered trust but also helped us retain major corporations on our client roster,” Adilov said.
