Your credible guide
in the Ukrainian
wild fields of law

At what stage is
your conflict?

01

On the Threshold

Emergence of disagreements and grounds for conflict

02

Preventive actions

Negotiations, mediation and taking other extrajudicial measures that can minimize or completely protect you from the development of a negative scenario

03

Lawsuit

If attempts at pre-trial settlement do not help - legal process(es) and/or criminal proceedings shall are initiated

04

Trial

Court proceedings, including the submission of procedural documents and evidence, interrogatories, debates and examinations. Almost everything is like in the movies

05

Judgment

The judge of first instance makes the first decision in your case

06

Appeal/Cassation

Judicial review of the decision in a higher court, if at least one of the parties does not agree with it

07

Enforcement

Enforcement of the final court decision or agreements that were reached and documented out of court proceeding
(see stage 2)

EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES & TOOLS
FOR RESOLVING YOUR CONFLICT

01

Negotiations
& Mediation

When appropriate, we recommend resolving conflicts out of court, as court is often unpredictably long and expensive. And often the result itself becomes unpredictably unsatisfactory for each of the parties.

Negotiations and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) tools can conserve resources and achieve mutually beneficial solutions (Win-Win) that cannot be achieved in court.

02

Legal
defense

Our team of experienced attorneys at law develops a defense position, represents your interests in court, and also provides legal assistance during conflict situations, negotiations, investigative actions, etc.

You can always count on our legal support. We are with you 24/7.

03

Public
Advocacy

Business communication with authorities is similar to a conversation between a mute and a deaf person.

Sometimes you have to look wider to understand that it is easier to change the rules of the game through professional advocacy and lobbying than to be immersed in a war with no end in sight.

04

Reputation
management

It is important not only to be confident in your rightness, but also to be visible in your confidence. Transparency eliminates the basis for rumors and misinformation. And every attack can be turned against the attacker, to your advantage.

FYI: a well-thought-out and well-implemented information (media) campaign that meets the main tasks of legal strategy can compensate for the shortcomings of the Ukrainian wild field of law.

05

The best defense
is a good offense

We not only solve problems, but also create problems for those who try to use the law for their own selfish purposes. In our understanding, "filing a counterclaim" is not limited to a judicial remedy, but is a powerful step that will have a significant impact on the opponent's position as a whole.

06

Harm minimization

In the legal world, minimizing damage in case of defeat is not a plan B, but part of plan A.

It's like folding a parachute: it may not be needed, but if it is needed, it should open without fail to land softly and rise again.
