Verification of Ukrainian counterparties

How to check a Ukrainian counterparty?

This is the question that all experienced participants in international trade ask themselves, starting a business with a company from Ukraine. It is known that experienced businessmen work with risks, not with consequences. So, to prevent a problem, it is often enough to study the background.

Therefore, verification of potential business partner is a basic procedure for starting a safe cooperation.

The issue of risks becomes all the more relevant for those who intend to cooperate with Ukrainian companies in the role of a seller, and the terms of the contract provide for full or significant prepayment of the goods.

In addition, checking the counterparty can be the primary stage of conducting legal due diligence before buying a business in Ukraine.

Director I.A. Krupiy

O.Y. Kirnos CEO of JSC Spetsplav

When in 2012 our company felt pressure on the business of the former authorities through tax authorities, we needed the help of professional lawyers to protect against unreasonable significant fines. These were the experts at law firm WinnerLex.

Practical experience, a broad outlook, a non-standard approach, systematic monitoring of legislation and its deep analysis, speed of decision making, sometimes unexpected decisions - all this is not a complete list of professional skills of company employees that allow to achieve the set goal.

Yours sincerely,

Director General O.Y. Kirnos

Grigorchuk O.V. Director of Kontraktus LLC

We met 3 law firm WinnerLex in 2010. In circumstances that suggest that everything in our world is built on injustice and depends on the whims of the representatives of the controlling authorities. But another thought was the director of the WinnerLex law firm Anna A. Vinnichenko. She expressed her views on the matter, which in the future was implemented in a legal position. And, as practice has shown, the legal position was chosen correctly. The lawsuit was won thanks to the right choice and the unconditionally legal talent of Anna Vinnichenko. I emphasize again, only because of these qualities.

In the future, our company cooperated with WinnerLex on other, more pleasant issues, such as opening a company, obtaining licenses, advisory questions on the Tax Code, etc. The raised questions were solved by WinnerLex lawyers within the agreed term, with maximum comfort for the Customer.

One talent is said to be missing. If a person has talent, then he is multifaceted. This certainly applies to Anna Vinnichenko. In addition to being a top-level lawyer, she is also a kind, sensitive person, an interesting interlocutor, an extraordinary psychologist, not least in the kind of work in which she has to deal with difficult situations, human destinies every day.

I would like to thank Anna Vinnichenko and her law firm for their responsiveness and professionalism.

WinnerLex contacted the company by accident, coming across their phone number on the Internet and did not regret it. The case concerned a tax penalty written in the tax "from the ceiling". The lawyers worked promptly and professionally. Thanks to a non-standard approach to solving very complex issues and excellent knowledge of our legislation, Anna and her team helped defend my rights and win the case in court. But knowing our tax authorities, they, without agreeing with the court's decision, filed with the court of appeal. And here the professionalism of the boys proved to be at its height. The case was won.

Many thanks to WinnerLex for having such competent and competent professionals in our time. Good luck and success.

I.I. Lelyakov Director of PE "Elektrozvarmash"

Nowadays, it is difficult to run a business without the advice of an experienced lawyer. As a result of the sudden need, PE "Elektrozvarmash" had to search for one.

As is customary in our country, they usually rely on the "experienced" advice. As our business partners have been cooperating with WinnerLex for a long time, we turned to them. And as it turned out later - not for nothing. As a result of our cooperation, the young ambitious staff of the company has shown a professional approach and promptness in resolving issues, which has led to numerous won tax disputes.

At the same time, given our long period of cooperation, WinnerLex Law Firm provides us with a flexible tariff plan and always comes to a meeting when it comes to loyalty in relationships.

But it is easy for us to cooperate with them not only because, but also because they save us from all problems related to courts, tax, registrars, and we save the most expensive - our business time.
