Dear comrade,
I come from Estonia, so I can fill you in on what's up in our region... First of all, you can forget criminal law. Most of the law-offices specialize solely on domestic civil law and employ people who graduated from Baltic Universities. However some of them (like e.g. Luiga/ Mody/ Borenius) work on international level and can hire an american specialist (doesn't happen very often though).
