Legal representation in criminal cases

The main task of a criminal defense lawyer is to provide comprehensive and effective protection of the client's rights and legitimate interests within the framework of a criminal case. A defense lawyer in criminal cases has the authority of a full-fledged participant in the criminal proceedings.

The defendant's counsel participates in the main court proceedings in cases provided for by the criminal procedural code, as well as at the invitation of the defendant, their legal representatives, and other persons by the defendant's commission or with their consent.

The lawyer provides items, documents, and information necessary for legal assistance, participates in the examination of other evidence, presents to the court their opinion on the substance of the charges and their substantiation, on circumstances mitigating the defendant's liability or justifying them, on the measure of punishment, as well as on other issues arising in the court proceedings.

The lawyers at "Nazkhanov and Partners" defend the rights of legal entities and individuals if they have suffered material, physical, or moral harm as a result of a committed crime, as well as harm to the business reputation or property of a legal entity.

If you have witnessed a crime or may be aware of circumstances relevant to the investigation of a criminal case, then the assistance of a lawyer will help you avoid a number of problems.

Victims and witnesses, having a special status within the framework of the criminal case under consideration, have a range of rights. However, unfortunately, not everyone is familiar with them, and not everyone can correctly exercise them.

A person who has witnessed any unlawful actions will be summoned to give evidence to the investigative authorities, and later to court. In practice, witnesses are often not even informed of their basic rights. As a result, their testimony is often distorted and presented in an interpretation that is advantageous and necessary for the investigator. Proving the opposite in judicial bodies is extremely difficult. As a result, your testimony may lead to an unfair verdict or, on the contrary, help the guilty person avoid responsibility.

Based on years of practice in criminal law, we can say that the most common violations of the law include:

Before each lawyer in the process of comprehensive client defense in a criminal case stands the goal of achieving exclusively positive results, among which the most successful are considered to be the termination of the criminal case or criminal prosecution against the client.

The professionalism of the "Nazkhanov and Partners" lawyers enables us to guarantee that during the defense process, if there are any grounds for terminating the pre-trial investigation, we achieve such a conclusion of the case investigation. Our lawyers strive for this result because they know that:

This is the initial stage of the criminal process, during which a law enforcement agency, investigator, or prosecutor, within their own competence, carefully examines the information received about a committed or impending crime to determine whether there are legal grounds to initiate proceedings on the case. The beginning of the pre-trial investigation is marked by the registration of a statement, notification of a criminal offense in the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations, or the first urgent investigative action.
