DEFENSE DURING THE PRE-TRIAL INVESTIGATION
1) Legal consultation (you will receive reasoned information during the consultation, which will enable you to make the right decision regarding further actions, which will contribute to lower costs of time and money);
2) Attorney's request (the possibility of obtaining specific information for you in a short time. In accordance with Part 2 of Article 24 of the Law of Ukraine "On the Bar and Attorneys' Activity", a state authority, a local self-government body, their officials and employees, heads of enterprises, institutions, organizations, public associations to which a lawyer's request has been sent are obliged to provide the lawyer with relevant information, copies of documents, except information with limited access and copies of documents containing information with limited access, no later than five working days from the day of receiving the request);

4) File a claim in criminal case (will provide an opportunity to protect your property rights if you have become a victim of any crime);
5) Presence at the scene of the incident: detention, notice of suspicion, etc. (the presence of a lawyer will allow you to feel more confident and safer and avoid abuse by law enforcement agencies);
6) Presence during the search (the presence of a lawyer will ensure that the search is carried out within the legal framework and you will protect your property rights);

16) Collection of evidence (a crucial element of criminal proceedings and the involvement of a lawyer will provide an opportunity to collect the necessary evidence that will strengthen your position in the case);
17) Appeal on actions or inaction of the prosecutor or investigator (submission of such a complaint by a lawyer will prompt the implementation of investigative actions in an appropriate legal manner);
