Do you need an extradition lawyer or an Interpol lawyer in Kyiv who actually works with international search cases, and does not just mention “Interpol” on the website?
The Law Firm “Attorney Cherezov and Partners” defends clients in extradition cases, international search matters, Interpol “red notices” (Red Notice) and other forms of cooperation between states via Interpol channels.
Threat of extradition, international search or an Interpol Red Notice?
We join the case at any stage — from the first signals about an international search to detention abroad, consideration of the extradition request in foreign courts and challenging data in Interpol.
Our goal is to block unlawful extradition, achieve deletion of information from the Interpol database, minimise the risk of detention and preserve the client’s freedom.
We work with cases involving Ukraine, EU countries (including Spain), the United Kingdom and other jurisdictions.
We protect businesspeople, public figures, military personnel, officials and private clients in respect of whom extradition or international search has been initiated.
The client receives not “formal letters to Interpol”, but a clear strategy: how to act in case of detention, how to behave in court, how to build a complaint to the Commission for the Control of Interpol’s Files (CCF) and what evidence to prepare for defence.
Our professional reputation and integrity are confirmed by clients’ recommendations!
Key specialization: extradition, Interpol and international search
Extradition cases:
support of extradition procedures to Ukraine and from Ukraine / EU countries;
defence against extradition in Spain and other EU states;
analysis of the grounds for the extradition request, assessment of risks for the client in the requesting state.
Interpol cases:
checking information about Interpol Red Notices and other types of Interpol notices;
preparation of requests for access to data and for their deletion from the Interpol database;
challenging politically or commercially motivated search requests.
International search and defence abroad:
assistance to clients declared in international search in connection with criminal proceedings in Ukraine or other states;
coordination of defence with lawyers in the EU, the United Kingdom and other countries;
development of a unified strategy that takes into account criminal, migration and reputational risks.
Cross-border disputes and compensation of damages:
civil and labour disputes with a “foreign element” (Ukraine + another state);
recovery of damages abroad, including those related to military actions on the territory of Ukraine;
use of mechanisms for access to frozen Russian assets in Europe for compensation of losses, where possible.
Important: we do not use Interpol and extradition procedures as a tool to put pressure on opponents and we do not promise “to remove you from search in 24 hours”.
We work strictly within the legal framework, relying on the Interpol Constitution, national law, human rights standards and the practice of international institutions.
Our experience: real extradition and Interpol cases, not theory
Our reputation in extradition and Interpol cases is based on honest risk assessment, deep analysis of international procedures and readiness to support the client simultaneously in several jurisdictions.
We work where criminal law, migration procedures, international search and political sensitivity of the case intersect.
Clients choose us when they are not satisfied with the “observer position” and need an active strategy: to block extradition, to achieve removal of a Red Notice from the Interpol database, to protect reputation in the media and to work with foreign lawyers as a single team.
We do not promise the impossible, but we always honestly warn what can realistically be achieved and which scenarios of development of events are possible.

Extradition: from the first signals to the court’s decision
In extradition cases, time works against the client. After a foreign state’s request is received or after detention abroad, every step — response to the request, statements to the police, position in court — must be carefully weighed and prepared by a lawyer.
Preliminary analysis of the extradition request: whether it complies with the law, and whether it has political, military or discriminatory character.
Assessment of risks in the requesting state: conditions of detention, guarantees of a fair trial, risk of ill-treatment.
Preparation of the legal position for refusal of extradition (taking into account ECtHR standards and national practice).
Representation in the courts of the state examining the extradition request, together with local lawyers.
Preparation of evidence of politically motivated prosecution, use of criminal proceedings as a tool of pressure or corporate raiding.
Support of the client after refusal of surrender: work with migration authorities, banks and employers who may rely on outdated data.
Interpol, Red Notice and deletion from the database
An Interpol Red Notice is a signal to law enforcement agencies of member states that a person is wanted and may be detained for extradition.
Quite often these mechanisms are used in violation of the Interpol Constitution: for political persecution, business conflicts or pressure on opponents.
We provide:
Verification of the presence of data about the client in Interpol databases, including Red Notices and other types of notices.
Preparation of requests for access to information and for correction or deletion of data.
Drafting and filing complaints to the Commission for the Control of Interpol’s Files (CCF) with detailed justification of violations of the Interpol Constitution and human rights.
Collection and submission of evidence of the political, commercial or corrupt nature of the prosecution.
Support of the client in case of detention on the basis of a Red Notice: participation in court hearings on preventive measures, work with migration authorities.
Control of the actual deletion of information from the Interpol database and prevention of its repeated publication.
Why do clients choose our law firm for extradition and Interpol cases?
In extradition and international search cases, a mistake can cost freedom, residence status and often reputation in the media.
That is why clients choose not “one lawyer for all situations”, but the team of the Law Firm “Attorney Cherezov and Partners”, which acts as a single coordination centre.
Teamwork in several jurisdictions at once
Extradition and Interpol are always about “several countries at the same time”.
While one lawyer works with documents in Ukraine, other lawyers coordinate the position with colleagues in the EU or the UK.
This is impossible in the format of “one person against the system”.
In-depth analysis of political and business context
We study not only the text of the request or the court decision, but also the context: who initiates the prosecution, what the real motives are, which parallel conflicts exist (business, politics, public statements).
This allows us to build strong arguments against abuse of extradition procedures.
Parallel collection of evidence in favour of the client
While part of the team prepares a complaint to the CCF, other lawyers collect court decisions, documents, expert opinions and public materials proving abuse of prosecution.
This creates a coherent picture that cannot be built “by one person”.
Constant contact and readiness to react 24/7
Detention on a Red Notice or sudden appearance of police at the airport never happens “at a convenient time”.
There is always a lawyer in the team who can urgently join the situation and give instructions to the client and his or her family.
Comprehensive approach: criminal, migration and reputational risks
We take into account not only the risk of extradition, but also the client’s further status: right to stay in the country, attitude of banks, employers, media.
Therefore, alongside the legal strategy, we also build a reputational defence strategy.
Real, verifiable reputation of the law firm
When you work with the Law Firm “Attorney Cherezov and Partners”, you have on your side a team that has publicly defended clients in complex, often politically sensitive cases.
This adds weight in negotiations, in courts and in interaction with foreign partners.
Frequently asked questions about extradition and Interpol cases
When should I contact an extradition lawyer right now?
If you have received information about an international search, been told about a request for surrender, or there is a threat of detention abroad, time works against you. The earlier an extradition lawyer joins the case, the more options you have for defence.
Is an Interpol Red Notice an “international arrest warrant”?
No. A Red Notice is a notice to law enforcement agencies of member states that a person is wanted. But in practice, it is on this basis that a person can be detained at an airport, at the border or during a routine ID check, so ignoring such risks is dangerous.
Can my information be removed from the Interpol database?
In a number of cases — yes. If the search violates the Interpol Constitution, has a political or commercial character or breaches fundamental human rights standards, we prepare a complaint to the CCF and collect evidence to have the data deleted or corrected.
Do I need to come to Kyiv to work with your firm?
No. We carry out most steps remotely: online consultations, exchange of documents, coordination with foreign lawyers. Personal meetings are organised if necessary, where required by the defence strategy in the extradition or Interpol case.
If you have learned about an international search, threat of extradition or an Interpol Red Notice, do not wait for “an official letter”. The sooner you get a defence strategy, the higher your chances of preserving freedom, residence status and reputation.
