Land law
I am a practising attorney in the field of land relations. Boundary disputes between neighbours, inheritance of a land plot and its division among heirs, free privatisation of land, purchase and sale of land, obtaining land on lease (including through auction) — this is only a small part of the cases I have resolved in my clients' favour.

If questions have arisen in your life concerning the acquisition, ownership, use or disposal of a land plot, or land disputes, then without false modesty I would advise you to seek the assistance of a Kyiv attorney experienced in this field — someone familiar not only with the Land Code but also with the many other legislative acts that regulate land relations.
The question of land is historically topical and legally complex. The procedure for acquiring land into ownership has countless nuances and depends not only on its location, the purpose of the acquisition and its category, but also on a host of other factors.
Land, like any other immovable property, has a special legal status which entails a special procedure for its formalisation and subsequent use. A land plot may be acquired into ownership not only on general grounds — through purchase and subsequent registration — but also, in accordance with the legislation, through free allocation by the competent authorities.
It is often possible to resolve land disputes out of court through negotiations and mutual agreements. If the problem cannot be resolved by negotiation, be prepared that you will need a qualified attorney in land disputes to represent your interests in court. I will help you not only in court but also before the relevant State authorities; together we will find the evidence needed to prove that you are right. You may seek judicial protection at any stage of the process.
Frequently asked questions
How do I privatize a land plot?
A petition is filed with the authority, a land management project is developed, the plot is registered in the cadastre and ownership is formalized. I handle all stages and challenge refusals.
A neighbor seized part of my plot. What can I do?
First — mark the boundaries in kind and document the violation. Then negotiations, or a court claim to remove obstacles to use.
