Specialisation down to the finest detail: from the partner to the team

Success lies in details that only those who deal with similar challenges every day can notice. Your case will be handled not by a random lawyer but by a well-coordinated team of specialists under the close supervision and mentorship of the practice partner. This guarantees the highest standard of expertise with no compromises.

Uncompromising candour as the foundation of trust

We act as your strategic adviser who calls things by their names. Instead of empty guarantees, we offer a well-considered action plan and absolute confidentiality, protecting not only your business but also your name.

Complete financial transparency and predictability

Integrity in a legal position is impossible without integrity in finances. We agree the format of cooperation and the budget before we take any action. Whichever model you choose — an hourly rate or a fixed project fee — you receive detailed reporting and a full understanding of exactly what you are investing in to protect your interests.

Frequently asked questions

Do not obstruct the investigators; ask for a copy of the court ruling and call your attorney immediately. You have the right to legal assistance from the very first minute. Do not give explanations without an attorney, and make sure everything seized is recorded in the search report.

You should not ignore an investigator's summons: failing to appear without a valid reason may have consequences, including compulsory appearance. However, you have the right to attend with an attorney and to refuse to testify against yourself and your close relatives (Article 63 of the Constitution of Ukraine).

Yes. A freeze can be appealed or a motion filed to lift it if the grounds no longer exist or it was imposed without justification.

Check the audit order and referral and the inspectors' authority, provide documents only within the scope of the audit and record everything in writing. Objections to the audit report must be filed within 10 business days — it is best to prepare them together with an attorney.

Ideally in advance: design the charter carefully, conclude a shareholders' agreement and set out the procedure for members leaving. If the conflict has already begun, it is important to secure evidence quickly and block risky registration actions.

The fee depends on the complexity of the case. During the first conversation we assess the situation and propose a format and budget for the work.

Yes. Everything you tell an attorney is protected by attorney–client privilege — even if no agreement is ever signed.

Yes. In addition to our head office in Kyiv, we work with partner offices in London, Warsaw and Dubai and handle clients' matters remotely.
