Appeals of sanctions and asset recovery procedures

Litigation
Protection of interests in court is necessary to resolve many corporate, economic, labor and other conflicts. At the same time, there are frequent cases of initiation of simultaneous criminal and civil proceedings for the implementation of comprehensive protection.
Most often, these are lawsuits on the protection of honor and dignity, refutation of inaccurate information, compensation for material and moral damage, recognition of dismissal as illegal and reinstatement, protection from raider seizures, invalidation of actions and decisions of civil servants, and others.

Legal Support for E-Declaration
E-declaration procedure has been supplemented with rules that complicate an already complex process. Therefore, as before, the subjects of declaration may deal with negative consequences of declaration checks and risks of accusations of non-compliance with anti-corruption legislation.

Crypto Asset Recovery
In Ukraine, the crypto market is gaining momentum. Anybody from any country can try e-commerce without relying on cross-border conventions because the nationality or jurisdiction of the players does not matter for the crypto market. However, cryptocurrency owners can often become the object of fraudulent or provocative actions, accompanied by various ways of hiding the traces of their actions and further legalization of illegally obtained assets.
