Navigating the Ukrainian legal landscape can be complex for IT businesses — especially when working with foreign clients, protecting intellectual property, signing contracts, or resolving tax issues. As a practicing lawyer in Ukraine, I provide tailored legal services for IT companies and startups, helping them focus on development while I take care of the risks.
Key Legal Services for IT Companies
Legal support for IT contracts
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts with clients, employees, and subcontractors — in both Ukrainian and English.
Typical case: a startup needs a well-structured agreement with a US client to secure payment and avoid IP risks.
Structuring and launching IT businesses
Registration of sole proprietorship (FOP), choosing the right taxation system, creating safe cooperation schemes with developers and designers.
Intellectual property protection
Ensuring copyright, trademark, and NDA protections for software, websites, code, and design.
Tax consulting and legal optimization
Helping reduce tax and legal risks for IT professionals working with foreign companies or marketplaces (Upwork, Fiverr, etc.).
Support in communication with banks and authorities
Assisting with issues like blocked accounts, unjustified financial monitoring, or foreign currency transfers.
Representation in court
If things go wrong — full legal defense in Ukrainian courts in business and tax disputes.
Why It Matters
In IT, everything moves fast — and legal problems often appear when it's too late. Many developers rely only on verbal agreements, copy-paste contracts, or "advice from colleagues". This leads to payment issues, intellectual property theft, tax fines, and even account blocks.
My legal assistance helps avoid these situations in the first place — and confidently solve them if they’ve already happened.
