Support of investigative questioning by a lawyer
Interrogation belongs to the category of the main stages of investigative actions. That is why it is very important to organize the accompaniment of investigative questioning by a lawyer. This is one of the activities of “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS” lawyers. Our lawyers will ensure that the interrogation takes place within the framework of current Ukrainian legislation. We guarantee the protection of our clients from psychological and physical pressure.
Who is accompanied by the lawyer during the interrogation?
If we are talking about a pre-trial investigation, the investigators organize the questioning of all participants – witnesses, victims, suspects. All participants in the pre-trial investigation can use the services of “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS” lawyers.
Witnesses are the largest group of participants in the criminal process. The most common way of obtaining evidence for both the defense and the prosecution is the questioning of a witness. That is why it is very important to organize professional support of the interrogation by a lawyer. A lawyer who will be present at the interrogation will be able to provide not only legal assistance, but also moral support.
Also, the participation of a lawyer in the interrogation will help in cases where the witness or the victim may become a suspect. Even at the stage of questioning you as a witness, our lawyers will carefully analyze the situation and will be able to protect your interests.
Duties of a lawyer during interrogation and pre-trial investigation
A criminal lawyer protects the interests of his client at the stage of pre-trial investigation. Support begins from the moment of the opening of a criminal case and before the case is referred to the court. The lawyers of “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS” will monitor the observance of all the rights of citizens.
Victims also need the help of a lawyer during interrogation. Thanks to the professionalism of our specialists, they will be able to protect their own interests and rights within the framework of current legislation.
If your actions qualify as actions of a suspect or accused, our lawyers:
- They will be present during the execution of various procedural actions.
- Necessary consultations will be held.
- They will build an individual defense strategy.
Without the consent of clients, we do not in any case disclose information that has become known to us in the course of criminal proceedings. We will prove your innocence by competently using the available evidence and facts.
Thus, the accompaniment of investigative questioning by a lawyer is a mandatory component for the protection of your rights.
This will help to avoid many problems, for example, giving deliberately false statements. In addition, the lawyer will clearly emphasize: why the witness, the victim, the suspect were invited. In the future, this will protect you from the risk of situations in which you, as a witness or victim, may become a suspect.
Without a doubt, timely consultation and assistance of professional lawyers at the pre-trial investigation stage is the key to success. Lawyers of “PRIKHODKO & PARTNERS” will provide the necessary consultations, will be present during interrogations and other investigative actions.

Are you a suspect in criminal proceedings?
Can I receive a consultation online or by phone?
Yes. Consultations are available by phone, online, and at our office. Your location does not prevent you from receiving initial legal assistance.
Which documents should I prepare for the consultation?
Bring or send everything related to the case, including a summons, notice of suspicion, court orders, records, agreements, and correspondence. If you do not have any documents, simply describe the situation. The lawyer will tell you what should be requested.
How much does a lawyer’s assistance cost?
The exact fee depends on the stage, complexity, and scope of work. Current estimates are shown in the price table on this page, and we prepare an individual calculation after the initial conversation.
Does your law firm work only in Kyiv?
No. We provide services throughout Ukraine. Clients looking for a criminal lawyer in Lviv, Odesa, or Dnipro can conveniently begin online. The next steps and format of cooperation can then be arranged to meet the needs of the case.
Should I choose a consultation or full representation?
A consultation may be sufficient when the issue is limited and clear. If proceedings have been opened, a notice of suspicion has been served, or a court hearing is expected, ongoing representation by a criminal lawyer may be required. A lawyer will recommend the appropriate format after the assessment, and it can be changed as the case develops.
Can a relative contact the lawyer?
Yes. Relatives are often the first to call a lawyer, especially after a detention. The lawyer’s authority is agreed with the person concerned by the proceedings and formalised in an agreement. This should be arranged as early as possible.
