In which cases do we help?

  • Protection of clients’ rights during the detention of persons declared wanted;
  • Support in the selection of preventive measures — temporary or extradition arrest;
  • Legal protection in extradition proceedings, including preparation of documents and participation in court hearings;
  • Appealing decisions on extradition to a foreign state, preparing complaints and petitions;
  • Drafting appeals to the Interpol Files Control Commission to cancel international search warrants;
  • Restoration of violated rights of persons who are subject to unlawful persecution.
