Legal Services in Germany
The law firm «Zahist» provides legal assistance to Ukrainians in Germany in Ukrainian and Russian: obtaining temporary protection status, labor and family disputes, housing issues, social benefits, and family reunification. The lawyer gets involved from the very first consultation, prepares documents in German, and supports the client until the case is resolved — in person at the office or remotely from any region of Germany.
It is worth reaching out in specific situations: obtaining or extending temporary protection status and a residence permit; dismissal, unpaid wages, or breach of an employment contract; rental disputes, eviction, or conflicts with utility providers; obtaining social benefits and allowances for Ukrainians; divorce, child custody, and family reunification. These services are especially important in the first months after relocation, when a Ukrainian is not yet familiar with the German system — each case is reviewed individually, and the lawyer proposes an action plan already at the first meeting.
