Help with civil court cases in Lviv

Re­ceived court papers or con­sid­er­ing a claim? In Lviv, we start with your ob­jec­tive and avail­able ev­i­dence to iden­ti­fy whether a claim, defence or another sub­mis­sion is needed.

When to seek help

  • You need to bring a prop­er­ty claim to court.
  • You re­ceived a claim or a court ruling setting a pro­ce­dur­al dead­line.
  • The court re­quired defects in your claim to be cor­rect­ed or issued an un­favourable de­ci­sion.

How we can help

Case assessment
We check whether civil pro­ce­dure applies, who should be a party and which ev­i­dence sup­ports the claims or ob­jec­tions.
Procedural documents
We prepare a claim, state­ment of defence or ap­pli­ca­tion for the current stage of pro­ceed­ings.
Next steps
We explain filing arrange­ments, court costs and points re­quir­ing further review.

How we get started

  1. Enquiry

    De­scribe the dispute and tell us about any ex­ist­ing case and up­com­ing pro­ce­dur­al date.

  2. Review

    We assess the doc­u­ments, ju­ris­dic­tion, dead­lines and pos­si­ble reme­dies.

  3. Agreement

    We agree a spe­cif­ic de­liv­er­able, who signs and files the doc­u­ments, and how to retain proof of filing and sending copies to other par­tic­i­pants.

What to prepare

  • The claim, court rulings and de­ci­sions, if avail­able.
  • Doc­u­ments and cor­re­spon­dence sup­port­ing your po­si­tion.
  • Dates when court papers were re­ceived and a short chronol­o­gy.

The initial con­sul­ta­tion is free. Court rep­re­sen­ta­tion is agreed sep­a­rate­ly after check­ing whether an ad­vo­cate or another duly au­tho­rised rep­re­sen­ta­tive is re­quired.

Which procedural document is needed now

The doc­u­ment re­ceived and case stage iden­ti­fy the next step more pre­cise­ly than a general court ques­tion.

When this applies

  • Civil proceedings

    First dis­tin­guish a claim, court order, or­di­nary judg­ment and default judg­ment. They do not share one uni­ver­sal dead­line.

  • Other proceedings

    Ad­min­is­tra­tive, com­mer­cial, crim­i­nal and offence pro­ceed­ings cannot be con­vert­ed into a civil tem­plate.

A cal­cu­la­tor helps only after the correct pro­ce­dure and start­ing date are es­tab­lished. It cannot extend time or amend a court order.

Keep orig­i­nals and de­liv­ery ev­i­dence. An example de­scrip­tion does not replace the actual doc­u­ment.

Choose the next step

Use the doc­u­ment re­ceived and the stage of the matter.

  • A claim or defence is needed

    Sep­a­rate relief, ob­jec­tions and ev­i­dence.

    Claim and defence

  • The court ordered correction of claim defects

    Address the actual defects while pre­serv­ing the full claim.

  • A civil court order was received

Frequently asked questions

Do I always need an advocate to take part in court?

You can conduct your own case per­son­al­ly. As a general rule, a rep­re­sen­ta­tive in civil court is an ad­vo­cate or a statu­to­ry rep­re­sen­ta­tive; ex­cep­tions exist for em­ploy­ment and small claims cases. El­i­gi­bil­i­ty and au­thor­i­ty to rep­re­sent are checked sep­a­rate­ly.

Can I request just one document?

Yes, the scope can be limited to a spe­cif­ic doc­u­ment. We still need the rel­e­vant back­ground ma­te­ri­als to prepare it.

Do you guarantee a win?

No. The outcome depends on ev­i­dence, the other party’s po­si­tion and the court’s de­ci­sion. We discuss risks before work begins.

What affects the cost and preparation time?

Cost and prepa­ra­tion time depend on the case stage, claims and par­tic­i­pants, and the ev­i­dence to review. A single pro­ce­dur­al doc­u­ment and further support have dif­fer­ent scopes; doc­u­ment com­ple­tion does not de­ter­mine the du­ra­tion of court pro­ceed­ings.
