Land is a specific object of legal regulation in Ukraine, and land relations belong to the category of most conflict-prone areas. Disputes between neighbors over boundary lines, conflicts during privatization of land, unlawful refusals of local governments to allocate land plots or approve land management projects — these problems arise daily for hundreds of landowners and land users.

Frequent changes in land legislation and the specifics of the State Land Cadastre's work add special complexity. Errors in determining cadastral numbers, overlapping boundaries of land plots, unlawful attempts to terminate land lease agreements, or seizing land through unauthorized construction require prompt legal response and deep legal expertise.

Attorney Yuriy Kozachuk, Ph.D., provides qualified legal defense in land disputes of any complexity. We successfully resolve boundary disputes with neighbors, protect against unlawful construction on adjacent territories, and support the registration of ownership or lease rights for land plots in Kyiv and the Kyiv region.

An important area is the judicial appeal of illegal decisions or inaction of the State Land Cadastre bodies, village, settlement, or city councils. We protect the rights of landowners and tenants, renew lease agreements in court, and invalidate illegal land transactions.

Thanks to our scientific approach and deep analysis of judicial practice, we find a way out of even the most complex conflicting land situations, guaranteeing the reliable preservation of your most valuable natural resource.
