Lawyer in criminal cases (proceedings) in Ukraine
Are you being accused by law enforcement officials? Is your home being searched without legal grounds? Do you not know how to protect your rights when you receive a court summons? In all these and other cases, a lawyer in criminal cases (proceedings) in Ukraine will be a reliable assistant.
What services does a criminal law specialist provide?
A specialist specializing in the Criminal Code of Ukraine can be involved in the consideration of a case at any stage of criminal proceedings. However, we recommend involving a lawyer at the initial stage. Thanks to this, many problems and mistakes can be avoided. Timely qualified legal assistance will allow you to protect the interests of each client as effectively as possible.
If you have been detained or are being searched, before the arrival of a lawyer from our law firm Prykhodko and Partners, we do not recommend:
- Sign any documents.
- Give testimony and explanations.
- Agree to a state lawyer.
A criminal law specialist will be able to qualitatively protect the rights of not only suspects/accused, but also other participants in a criminal case: the victim (applicant), witness, civil plaintiff/defendant, etc.
Criminal defense is a top priority for our lawyers. We provide defense at each stage of a criminal case:
- Detention or arrest
If you are detained without lawful grounds, a search is conducted, you must immediately call a lawyer. At this stage, it is already important to monitor the observance of the rights of the suspect/accused.
- Participation in investigative actions (interrogations, etc.)
We have the necessary practical experience to qualitatively protect the interests of each client.
- Preparation of a solid evidence base
Our criminal lawyers will become reliable partners in the process of conducting various examinations. We will be able to determine how certain evidence was obtained. If, for example, illegal methods were used, we will seek to have it excluded from the criminal case materials.
- Preparing the client for the case in court
In cases where the criminal case has been closed and you believe that the decision made is unlawful, we will begin the process by appealing it. During the course of participating in the case, our lawyers will make every effort to acquit the client or significantly mitigate the sentence.
In addition, the specialists of our law office act as a mediator for the possible reconciliation of the parties (for example, the injured party and the accused).
The main task for us is to protect the rights of each client exclusively within the framework of the current legal framework.
Areas of activity of a criminal lawyer
Specialists of our law firm Prykhodko and Partners in criminal law provide highly professional services in various areas of practical activity:
- Military-related offenses
Since the beginning of the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war, the number of cases related to military personnel has significantly increased. Among their characteristic features is the hasty conduct of investigative actions. We already have extensive practical experience in defending those accused of disobedience and desertion. Defense strategies are thought out to the smallest detail. Our lawyers will use all the gaps and violations in the case to obtain an acquittal.
- Fraud
We represent the interests of both individuals and commercial structures.
Today, fraudsters use various applications and digital technologies to carry out their own illegal activities. This requires a defense attorney in criminal proceedings to have specific knowledge and skills. Thanks to the timely involvement of a fraud specialist, there are great chances of obtaining a positive result. We advise witnesses and victims.
- Particularly serious crimes: violence, murder, rape
The charges in the above cases provide for the most severe punishment. They are characterized by particular complexity not only for the defense, but also for the prosecution. This is explained by the fact that it is necessary to establish the motives, intentions, and methods of committing the crime. That is why it is worth involving a lawyer at the pre-trial investigation stage.
- Distribution of erotic or pornographic materials
We have effective protection mechanisms in this area. For example, there are frequent cases when various Internet platforms become participants in criminal cases (OnlyFans, etc.). As our practice shows, in most cases this is groundless and unlawful. Our specialists substantiate the feasibility of conducting various examinations, the nature of the crime, and the presence of intent.
