Attorney-at-law Aivar Pilv of the Aivar Pilv Law Office successfully represented a well-known businessman Alexander Kofkin in Tallinn Circuit Court. Attorneys-at-law Pirkka-Marja Põldvere and Marko Pilv also provided legal assistance in this court proceeding.
With the decision from 25 January 2016, the Tallinn Circuit Court refused to change the decision of the Harju County Court from 11 May 2015 which satisfied the claim of the entrepreneur Alexander Kofkin against journalists Kadri Paas, Katariina Krjutškova and their company Vaba Kiri OÜ regarding the publication of incorrect data in the book entitled „Andrus Ansip – halva iseloomuga tark poiss“. The Tallinn Circuit Court in its resolution agreed with the Harju County Court and also established that incorrect data has been published in the above-mentioned book about A. Kofkin as well as inappropriate value judgments have been formed.
This case has also been handled in the web publication of the daily Postimees and can be read in Estonian here.
