Legal Advice and Compliance Support

Expert Legal Guidance When You Need It

Navigating Ukrainian law can be complex, especially for foreign businesses and individuals unfamiliar with local regulations, procedures, and institutional practices. Whether you need a one-time consultation on a specific question or ongoing advisory support, I provide clear, actionable legal guidance tailored to your situation.

With over 24 years of experience across government, prosecution, judiciary, and private practice, I offer a perspective that combines deep knowledge of Ukrainian legislation with practical understanding of how institutions actually work.

Advisory Services for Businesses

I represent clients in the following types of commercial and civil disputes:

• Regulatory compliance — ensuring your business operations in Ukraine comply with applicable laws, regulations, and licensing requirements.
• Government interactions — advising on how to effectively communicate with Ukrainian authorities, respond to inspections, and handle regulatory inquiries.
• Tax advisory — guidance on corporate tax obligations, VAT, transfer pricing, and tax treaty implications for foreign businesses operating in Ukraine.
• Employment law — advising on hiring Ukrainian employees or contractors, labor law compliance, and termination procedures.
• Permits and licenses — identifying required permits for specific business activities and guiding you through the application process.
• Data protection — advising on Ukrainian personal data protection requirements and compliance with applicable regulations.

Advisory Services for Individuals

• Property matters — buying, selling, inheriting, or managing real estate in Ukraine. Tax implications, registration procedures, and document requirements.
• Tax obligations — property tax, income tax for non-residents, tax residency status, and reporting requirements for Ukrainians living abroad.
• Family law matters — divorce, custody, alimony, and marital property questions under Ukrainian law.
• Inheritance and succession — Ukrainian inheritance rules, cross-border estate issues, required documents, and procedural guidance.
• Document requirements — what documents you need for specific purposes, how to obtain them in Ukraine, and how to legalize them for use abroad.

How Consultations Work

Step 1: You describe your situation or question via email or the contact form.

Step 2: I review your inquiry, prepare for the consultation, and we schedule a video or audio call.

Step 3: During the consultation, I explain your legal position, available options, and recommended next steps in plain English.

Step 4: If needed, I provide a written summary with key findings, legal references, and an action plan.

If your matter requires further legal action — such as document preparation, court representation, or negotiations — I provide a separate quote based on the scope of work.
