About this area
Winning the case is half the work
Debtors move assets, change addresses and ignore decisions. We start enforcement quickly, choose between state and private enforcement officers, search for property and accounts, and use the tools the law provides to make the decision real.

Questions
Before you call, the essentials
Not covered here? Ask an attorney directly during your consultation.
Can a foreign court decision be enforced in Ukraine?
Yes, if there is a treaty between the countries or reciprocity. The creditor applies to a Ukrainian court for recognition and permission to enforce.
Is there a deadline to enforce a foreign judgment in Ukraine?
Yes. As a rule, the application can be filed within three years from the day the foreign decision came into force.
What is the difference between state and private enforcement officers?
Both enforce court decisions. Private officers often work faster and are paid from the amount recovered, but they cannot enforce some categories of cases.
Can you find the debtor's assets?
Yes. We search state registers for real estate, vehicles, companies and other assets, and request information on bank accounts through the enforcement officer.
What if the debtor has nothing in their name?
We check transfers to relatives and related companies, and challenge transactions made to avoid enforcement where the law allows it.
Let's put an end to the uncertainty.
