Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to resolve a company dispute in Lviv?
The cost depends on the case value, the number of court instances involved, and whether the claim is property-related (court fee is a percentage of the claim sum) or non-property (a fixed rate under the Law of Ukraine "On Court Fees"). Lawyer fees are quoted after reviewing the charter, USR extract, and the specific conflict, since a shareholder exclusion case and a director-liability claim require different scopes of work.
What documents are needed to start a corporate or shareholder dispute?
You typically need the company charter, a fresh Unified State Register (USR/EDR) extract, minutes of the general meeting or supervisory board decisions at issue, the shareholder/participant register, and any contracts or correspondence tied to the disputed decision. If the claim involves contested registration actions, the state registrar's decision and related USR filing history are also required.
How long does a company dispute take to resolve in a Lviv court?
A commercial dispute typically takes several months at first instance in the Lviv Commercial Court, with an appeal adding further months and cassation extending the timeline further; urgent interim measures (asset freezes, voting bans) can be requested separately and decided faster. Actual duration depends on case complexity, expert examinations, and whether the other party appeals.
Can a foreign national or foreign company be a party to a company dispute in Ukraine?
Yes, foreign individuals and legal entities have the same standing to sue or be sued in Ukrainian commercial courts as Ukrainian residents; foreign-issued documents generally require notarized translation and, unless an international treaty exempts them, an apostille. A notarized power of attorney is required if the case is handled through a Lviv-based lawyer without the client's personal presence.
What types of company disputes does Zakon Lviv handle?
Zakon Lviv handles shareholder and participant conflicts, director/executive liability claims, forced buyout of a participant's share, exclusion of a participant from an LLC, challenges to general meeting or supervisory board decisions, and disputes over contested entries in the Unified State Register (USR/EDR).
