Biography
Seasoned International Lawyer. I cater to American and international clients with a diverse range of legal requirements in the United States, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, encompassing International Notary Services, Apostille, and more. We offer accredited English/Russian/Ukrainian translations. The global facet of our practice involves serving as a Russian/Ukrainian divorce lawyer. We also extend support in matters related to Russian and Ukrainian citizenships. I offer legal counsel on Russian law for legal firms and the U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services. My primary emphasis lies in collaborating with courts and immigration authorities to interpret Russian law concerning family law, enforcement of Russian court orders, child custody, parental consent for immigration matters, child abduction, estate and property issues, and financial investments. With over three decades of legal practice, I have successfully resolved more than 3,000 cases in Russia, documented in official legal publications, and acknowledged as influential interpretations of Russian Laws. Furthermore, I have provided 1,500 affidavits and legal opinions for U.S. courts and the USCIS. A significant portion of our work entails a broad spectrum of legal and notary services globally. We deliver various certified translation services for any country and language. Our services include assisting in obtaining certificates of "No criminal record," retrieving documents from court archives, restoring birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates from Vital Records/Registry Office in the U.S. and overseas in "ZAGS" of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, etc., acquiring certificates of "The fact of being alive" to secure a foreign pension, and handling court cases abroad, if necessary. We authenticate Consents for the sale or purchase of Real Estate, Affidavits, Parental permission for children to travel abroad, and other documents for Russia and Ukraine. Additionally, I offer a range of other services which are detailed on our website.
