Enforcement proceedings
A more advanced form of legal assistance is the representation of an attorney before the state enforcement service, since, as a rule, citizens do not have sufficient legal knowledge to protect their own rights, freedoms and legally protected interests, whereas the qualified assistance of an attorney or lawyer is always more effective. A good attorney will react in good time to the need to secure the enforcement of property claims, the inventory of the debtor's property and its seizure, the release of property from seizure and its exclusion from the inventory.
Having established the fact that the debtor has disposed of property and having checked the lawfulness of the transaction, the attorney may raise before the competent authorities the question of bringing a claim to declare the transaction invalid where there is a suspicion that it is fictitious. The attorney may also protect the lawful interests of a party to enforcement proceedings in other forms: providing legal consultations, drafting applications, motions and other procedural documents.
The main services of an attorney include:
- Consulting on matters related to enforcement proceedings and the compulsory execution of court decisions;
- Preparation and filing of the necessary documents;
- Representation of individuals and legal entities (enterprises) in enforcement proceedings;
- Challenging the actions or inaction of a state enforcement officer;
- Assistance and comprehensive support in resolving any matters in your favour before the state enforcement service in the city of Kyiv (including the enforcement department of the Pechersk district of Kyiv).
Frequently asked questions
I won in court but the debtor does not pay. What now?
Open enforcement proceedings and supervise the officer: asset tracing, freezes, restrictions. Without supervision, cases sit idle for years.
An officer froze my accounts unlawfully. How do I lift it?
The officer's actions are challenged to the head of the office or in court. With proper argumentation, freezes are lifted fairly quickly.
