Trust and professionalism in matters concerning your family.
I gather evidence of a parent's failure to fulfill their parental duties, obtain the guardianship authority's opinion, prepare the lawsuit, and protect the child's interests in court.
I help people defend their rights in courts across Ukraine. I work honestly: I explain the case's prospects and the full cost before starting any work.
The exact cost of handling your case can only be determined after a consultation.
For more than 15 years the father had no contact with his son, did not raise him, and did not support him; the child support arrears exceeded UAH 228,000.
A lawsuit was prepared for termination of parental rights and recovery of the penalty; the guardianship authority's opinion was obtained, and certificates were collected from the school, the clinic, and the enforcement service. The case was heard in the father's absence (by default).
The court terminated the defendant's parental rights and ordered recovery of the penalty for unpaid child support.
Case in the register ↗The client sought termination of parental rights; she had no information on the progress of the enforcement proceedings.
Enforcement measures against the debtor were sped up, a calculation of the arrears was obtained, evidence of the father's non-involvement and the mother's additional expenses was gathered, and the lawsuit was filed.
The court terminated the father's parental rights and ordered recovery of additional expenses for the child.
Case in the register ↗For more than 9 years the father did not take part in raising the child, did not support them, and did not stay in contact.
Evidence was gathered, the guardianship authority's opinion was obtained, and certificates from the school and medical institutions were added; the case was heard in the father's absence (by default).
The court fully granted the lawsuit — the interests of the child and the mother were protected.
Case in the register ↗You submit a request through the website form or a messenger, or call me directly.
At the consultation you describe your situation, I review the materials, form a position, and advise on the next steps.
We sign a legal services agreement — and get to work.
Answer. If there is a minor child, the divorce is processed through the court. Property division can be filed separately — within the 3-year limitation period from when you learned that your property right was violated.
Answer. The child's place of residence is determined by agreement between the parents (taking into account the child's opinion from age 10; from age 14 the child decides for themselves). If there is no agreement, the court decides. Deprivation of parental rights is an extreme measure, considered by the court on a case-by-case basis.
Answer. If there are no minor children and both spouses agree, you can register the divorce at the civil registry office (DRACS) and divide the property at a notary. Without agreement, or if there is a child, these matters are decided in court — here it is better to consult an attorney.
Answer. It is possible to get divorced through a court in Ukraine or in the country where the husband lives. If he had a registered place of residence or property in Ukraine, the claim is filed there. Otherwise, it is filed at the defendant's place of residence.
Answer. Yes, child support (alimony) for a child is paid until age 18, and spousal maintenance until the child turns 3. The procedure is judicial (a court order or a court judgment), after which enforcement proceedings are opened for compulsory collection.
Answer. At the first consultation (up to 20 minutes) we will go through your situation in detail. I will review the documents, honestly assess the case's prospects, and suggest a concrete step-by-step plan of action. You will get clarity, even if you decide not to continue working with me.
Answer. The first consultation is free. The cost of further services depends on how complex the case is. I always state the full, transparent cost before starting any work. No hidden fees.
Answer. No professional attorney can promise a 100% win, since the decision is made by the court. What I do promise is a thorough analysis of the case, my full effort, complete confidentiality, and the use of all my experience to protect your interests.
Answer. Completely. Everything you discuss with me is protected by attorney–client privilege from the first second of our conversation — even during the free consultation. This is an inviolable rule of the profession.

Termination of parental rights is a complex procedure that requires competent legal support. I provide legal assistance in cases on termination of a father's or mother's parental rights in Kyiv and other regions of Ukraine, choosing an effective strategy to protect the child's interests.
Clients most often come to me when one parent has withdrawn from the child's life — does not stay in contact, does not raise the child, does not provide financial support, abuses alcohol or drugs, commits violence, or has gone missing. In such cases, termination of parental rights protects the rights and interests of the child.
I will help prepare the documents, send inquiries to the relevant institutions, and represent your interests in court, including in proceedings held in the other parent's absence. If you need a lawyer for termination of parental rights in Kyiv, get in touch for a consultation.
