Maximum Protection of Your Rights from the Very First Minutes
The pre-trial investigation stage is the most intense, unpredictable, and procedurally decisive phase of criminal proceedings. It is during this period that key evidence is collected, restrictive measures are addressed, property may be seized, expert examinations are initiated, and the legal qualification of the alleged conduct is shaped. Any mistake made by a suspect, an accused person, a witness, or a victim at this stage may seriously weaken the defense later.
"Courtiery" Private Service provides urgent and professional support during pre-trial investigations in Ukraine, from the entry of information into the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations to the completion of the investigation and submission of the indictment to court. In 2026, effective defense at this stage requires immediate response, active procedural control, and a clear strategy for working with evidence.
Immediate Defense During the Pre-Trial Investigation
In criminal proceedings, time almost always favors the prosecution. That is why an emergency attorney call-out during detention, a search, questioning, or other urgent investigative actions is critically important. Legal assistance at the very beginning helps preserve procedural rights, avoid self-incrimination, document violations, and prevent the uncontrolled creation of evidence against the client.
Emergency Attendance
An attorney promptly arrives during a search, detention, or urgent questioning and monitors compliance with the client’s rights from the first minutes.
Procedural Control
Every investigative action is reviewed from the defense perspective, including procedural violations, comments to records, and unlawful conduct by law enforcement officers.
Strategy from First Contact
The client immediately receives guidance on the right to remain silent, the limits of permissible explanations, and safe conduct during investigative contact.
Legal Basis for Immediate Defense
"A person shall not bear responsibility for refusing to testify or explain anything regarding oneself, members of one's family, or close relatives, the circle of whom is determined by law."
This constitutional principle is one of the key defense tools during the pre-trial investigation. "Courtiery" Private Service applies it in practice during questioning, searches, detentions, and other investigative actions in order to prevent the client from providing explanations that may later be used by the prosecution.
What Pre-Trial Investigation Support Includes
Core Defense Workflow
- Immediate analysis of the procedural situation, including the person’s status, the stage of proceedings, the existing risks, and the factual background.
- Attorney participation in priority investigative actions such as questioning, search, detention, identification, and investigative experiment.
- Documentation of procedural violations and submission of appropriate remarks, statements, and complaints.
- Building the defense evidence base through motions, attorney requests, documents, and independent expert initiatives.
- Preparation of a strategy regarding restrictive measures, property seizure, appeals against decisions, and completion of the investigation.
Defense During Investigative Actions
- 1Support during the questioning of a witness, suspect, victim, or another participant in the proceedings.
- 2Participation in investigative experiments, lineups, and other procedural actions with an increased risk of manipulation.
- 3Control over sample collection, the appointment of expert examinations, and the conduct of forensic analysis.
- 4Verification of the accuracy of procedural records and submission of defense comments to those records.
- 5Immediate response to psychological pressure, leading questions, or other violations of procedural rights.
Defense during investigative actions is not limited to the attorney’s physical presence. The task is to control the legality of the procedure, ensure accurate recording of the client’s position, and prevent the creation of evidence through procedural violations that later complicate the defense in court.
Appeals, Restrictive Measures, and Property Seizure
- Preparation of complaints to the investigating judge against unlawful actions or inaction of the investigator and prosecutor under Article 303 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine.
- Challenge of unlawful detention and initiation of a demand for the person’s immediate release.
- Preparation of motions for a more lenient restrictive measure or reduction of the bail amount.
- Challenge of property seizure and preparation of documents for its lifting in accordance with Article 174 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine.
- Development of legal arguments showing the absence of a connection between the property and the alleged criminal offense or the lack of grounds for restrictions.
It is precisely at the pre-trial stage that issues of liberty, reputation, and the preservation of assets are decided. For that reason, work related to restrictive measures, detention, and property seizure requires rapid decisions, strong written argumentation, and constant procedural pressure on the prosecution within the limits of the law.
Building the Defense Evidence Base and Cost of Services
Effective support during the pre-trial investigation means not only reacting to the actions of the investigation, but also actively building an independent evidentiary position. "Courtiery" Private Service works with attorney requests, documents, alibi materials, independent expert opinions, and other mechanisms that strengthen the defense, prepare counterarguments, and, where legal grounds exist, make it possible to achieve the closure of the proceedings before trial.

Why Defense Must Begin at the Pre-Trial Stage
The Key Stage of Case Formation
- It is at this stage that most of the factual and procedural foundations of the future accusation, or its destruction, are formed.
A Real Opportunity to Influence the Outcome
- Active defense measures may lead to closure of the proceedings, reclassification, or significant risk reduction before any court hearing begins.
Practical Protection of Interests
- Timely attorney support helps preserve liberty, property, reputation, and control over the procedural position.
The pre-trial investigation often determines the future of the entire case before the materials even reach court. That is why the defense strategy, collection of independent evidence, challenge of violations, and competent reaction to each investigative action must be systematic rather than situational.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Trial Investigation
What should I do if a search starts and my own lawyer is unavailable?
In that situation, you should urgently involve defense counsel who can promptly arrive at the location and take control of the legality of the search. Until the attorney arrives, do not sign documents without reviewing them and do not provide oral explanations on the merits of the case.
Will relying on Article 63 of the Constitution of Ukraine make the situation worse?
No. The right not to testify against oneself is a constitutional guarantee, not an indication of guilt. Using this right helps avoid careless explanations that investigators may later use against the person before the defense has developed a balanced legal position.
Is it realistic to have a case closed during the pre-trial investigation?
Yes, in a number of cases this is possible. If the defense proves the absence of the constituent elements of a criminal offense, the inadmissibility of key evidence, the absence of the criminal event, or other legal grounds provided by law, the proceedings may be closed before the indictment is submitted to court.
You should not wait until the risks of the pre-trial investigation turn into a prosecutorial scenario. Timely attorney support allows you to control the process, actively build the defense, and respond to each procedural threat from a legal position rather than after valuable time has already been lost.
