Asters has successfully defended PrivatBank CB JSC, the largest bank in Ukraine by assets, in a defamation dispute with O. Dubilet, the former chairman of the bank's board, before the Civil Court of Cassation of the Supreme Court in Ukraine.

According to Asters, ”on May 27, 2020, the panel of judges of the Supreme Court passed a resolution allowing PrivatBank's cassation appeal in its entirety and setting aside the lower court decisions made in favor of O. Dubilet. This is the first time that the nationalized PrivatBank has won a defamation case before the Supreme Court.”

Asters' team included Partner Andriy Pozhidayev, Counsel Oleh Lazovskyi, and Associate Nataliia Mysnyk.
