Litigation
Since 2009, Misechko & Partners has represented Ukrainian and international companies, as well as private clients, before Ukrainian courts at all levels, up to the Supreme Court.
We are involved from the outset: we assess the prospects, define the strategy, gather evidence and prepare procedural documents. Once a judgment is delivered, we see it through to enforcement, including in disputes with the State Enforcement Service.
The firm’s litigation practice is recognised by Benchmark Litigation and The Legal 500.
