Legal protection of the interests of individuals and legal entities against illegal actions of law enforcement agencies – NABU, SBU, BEB, NAZK

Unfortunately, the realities of modern life indicate that individuals and legal entities may need legal assistance to protect against illegal actions of law enforcement agencies. We are talking, first of all, about the SBU, NABU, BEB, NAZK. Despite the fact that Ukraine is a democratic country, the actions of law enforcement officers in relation to, for example, business representatives are not always legal. Representatives of our law firm "PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS" will help protect your rights.

What violations are most often committed by representatives of law enforcement agencies?

In most cases, law enforcement officers allow violations during the illegal collection of information about the owners of the company and the company itself. In the future, this information can be used not for law enforcement, but for pressure on business. Statistical data show that no raiding of private property in Ukraine is carried out without the direct participation of law enforcement officers. Information about violations of the rights of legal entities and individuals by representatives of law enforcement agencies appears in the information space almost every day. The defense of a lawyer in criminal proceedings against NABU / SBU / BEB / NAZK will help resolve the situation. In this way, you will be able to protect yourself and your business from unnecessary costs and risks associated with corruption schemes.

Modern Ukrainian business suffers the most from law enforcement officers during a pre-trial investigation. We are talking about so-called "mask-shows", seizure of property during searches, damage or destruction of company property. And this is far from a complete list of measures of law enforcement pressure on business representatives.

In Ukraine, there is an invisible struggle between business and representatives of law enforcement agencies in the application of conceptual approaches to conducting searches and other investigative actions.

Some gaps in the legislation increase the demand of individuals and legal entities for protection against illegal actions of the SBU / NABU / BEB / NAZK. For example, the Constitution of Ukraine stipulates that all citizens can count on the inviolability and safety of their homes, including their homes (Articles 3, 29, 39). According to Art. 30, the criteria for the inviolability of housing are clearly defined. However, practice is significantly different from theory. In particular, there is a non-judicial way of breaking into a private home during a search of certain categories of participants in criminal proceedings.

What powers does a lawyer who defends against illegal actions of law enforcement agencies have?

The role of a lawyer, who acts as a defender of an individual or legal entity, begins even before a possible search is conducted. Among the methods of protection of legal interests and rights:

• Direct challenge to the actions of law enforcement officers during the search.
• Drafting of petitions (written appeals) to investigative judges.
• Video recording by the lawyer of the course of the search using his own technical means.
• Protection at the stage of seizure of property.
• Removal of arrest on property.

Thus, for the legal protection of the interests of individuals and legal entities against the illegal actions of law enforcement officers, it is worth contacting real professionals - lawyers of our company "PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS". The key to our success is an individual approach to each client and a perfect command of the legislation of Ukraine!
