WHY ME I have been practicing as a Russian family lawyer, solicitor and barrister, for over 14 years, specializing in international family law matters. For many years I’ve been a member of the IAML, a worldwide association of practicing family lawyers who are recognized by their peers as the most experienced and skilled family law specialists in their respective countries. I have high qualifications in Russian and Australian law, the latter bearing a lot of similarities with the UK and the US Family law. I’ve practiced law and appeared in courts in Russia and abroad as a barrister and legal expert in Russian law, including the Supreme Court of Russia, the Family Court of Australia, the High Court of the UK, High Court of Netherlands and other. divorceinrussia.com
WHAT I DO Russian Divorce and Family Law is, generally, more liberal than the Western Family Law. However, the Russian legal system can be complicated, while language barriers can make it hard to deal with. I work with both foreign and Russian clients; the international side of my practice sees me acting primarily as a Russian family lawyer where one party or both are foreign nationals. My services extend to the following aspects of Russian Family Law: financial agreements, commonly known as pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreements, complex multijurisdictional property cases, parental matters, including children relocation, child support and spouse maintenance, inheritance and related fields of law. divorceinrussia.com
Academic work The academic side of my work has always been a professional priority, allowing me to continue to improve my knowledge and skills as a practicing family lawyer. I have authored numerous articles in both Russian and British specialist and popular publications (including The Lawyer, Marie Claire and others) and have been the recipient of several awards relating to my work in legal research, including the Russian President PhD scholarship and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Grant. My most recent publication the Russian Chapter in the 2nd edition of Jurisdictional Comparisons, co-authored by the great team of top family lawyers and international family law experts in their respective countries. I am passionate about being a family lawyer and divorce attorney as it allows me guide and help people in their difficult time and resolve many tangled issues for their families as well as to contribute to academic writing as a Russian lawyer and international law specialist. divorceinrussia.com
