Sanctions Cases

In which cases do we help?

Our lawyers assist clients in sanctions cases at all stages — from gathering evidence and developing a defense strategy to representing clients in court and appealing decisions made by government authorities.

  • Appealing decrees of the President of Ukraine on the application of sanctions, including requests for their recognition as unlawful and their revocation;
  • Gathering evidence in sanction cases, including restricted access data, developing defense strategies and tactics;
  • Representation in the High Anti-Corruption Court in cases concerning the recovery of assets directly or indirectly belonging to persons subject to sanctions for the benefit of the state;
  • Legal support in cases concerning restrictions on access to state secrets, appeals against decisions to deny access;
  • Analysis of the legal consequences of sanctions, including their impact on corporate structures, banking operations, and property rights;
  • Development of an individual client protection strategy in national courts and international jurisdictions.

Our approach

The team at LESHCHENKO & PARTNERS acts strategically, combining legal analysis, procedural experience, and a deep understanding of the mechanisms of sanctions policy. We develop effective legal positions based on international standards, ECHR decisions, and the practice of national courts.
