Protection of Business from Criminal Prosecution and Economic Crimes in Kyiv
In today’s business environment, entrepreneurs often face threats of economic pressure, unjustified searches, account blocking, and criminal prosecution. Business protection in such conditions requires not just a lawyer, but a strong legal partner with experience in handling complex criminal proceedings. PRAGNUM Law Firm offers high-class legal support in cases related to economic crimes, corruption charges, and countering abuses by law enforcement authorities. Our lawyers safeguard the lawful interests of businesses, ensuring real legal protection at all stages of the criminal process — from the first investigative actions to the final court decision.
Who needs protection from criminal prosecution?
Today, no business, regardless of size or industry, is insured against situations where the actions of regulatory authorities may threaten the stability of the company or the personal liability of its executives. Legal protection becomes necessary in such cases:
- Entrepreneurs and companies against whom criminal proceedings are initiated on suspicion of financial fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, or misappropriation of property. Such charges are often accompanied by searches, seizures of documents, asset freezes, and interrogation summons.
- Businesspeople accused of corruption, including giving bribes, collusion with government officials, abuse of influence, or embezzlement of budget funds.
- Companies that become subjects of pre-trial investigations in criminal cases related to government tenders, tax schemes, or interactions with fictitious contractors.
- Individuals seeking to prevent criminal risks in the course of business — through legal consultations, contract audits, and support during inspections by law enforcement or tax authorities.
- Legal entities under investigation by the Tax Police, NABU, DBR, or SBU on suspicion of financial fraud or abuse.
- Companies facing unlawful actions of regulatory authorities — searches, property seizures, or account blocking.
- Persons unjustly accused of corruption or involvement in criminal schemes with budget funds, public procurement, or abuse of office.

Stages of legal assistance.
In economic and corruption crime cases, it is important to act systematically, professionally, and promptly. PRAGNUM follows a clear structure to achieve the best results for our clients.
Initial consultation.
The defence begins with a deep analysis of the case: studying charges, evidence base, auditing documents, contracts, and accounting. Based on this, we form a preliminary defence strategy, identifying weaknesses in the investigators’ or prosecutors’ positions. At this stage, the client receives a clear understanding of risks and ways to minimize them.
Document preparation.
At the second stage, PRAGNUM lawyers prepare the legal position: build evidence, draft motions, complaints, lawyer inquiries, explanations, and objections to charges. We work with experts, auditors, and accountants to prove the legality of business actions or absence of criminal elements.

Court representation.
Our lawyers ensure full representation of clients in court — from preparation and debates to appeals and cassation. We handle complex documentation, conduct cross-examinations, and prepare analytical briefs for the court. Legal support covers the entire process: from bail to verdict.
Support during investigation.
We engage at the pre-trial stage, influencing investigations, challenging unlawful investigator actions, and protecting reputations. PRAGNUM lawyers attend searches, seizures of equipment/documents, interrogations, and interact with SBU, NABU, Tax Police, and Prosecutor’s Office. Early involvement minimizes risks and often prevents cases from reaching trial.
