How Much Does a Pension Lawyer Cost in Kyiv?
Throughout their working life, people work and pay social security contributions from their salaries, expecting fair support from the state once they reach retirement age. However, in practice, refusals to grant pensions, unfair pension amounts, calculation errors, difficulties in confirming insurance records, and failure to take into account benefits provided by law are an unfortunate reality. As a result, years of work may remain unrecognised, leaving people with a sense of injustice and helplessness before a system that is supposed to protect their rights.
To resolve pension-related issues with confidence and avoid unnecessary difficulties, it is worth seeking the assistance of a pension lawyer. A specialist will assess the situation, prepare applications and complaints and, where necessary, defend the client’s rights in court. Such legal support saves time, helps keep the process under control and significantly increases the chances of achieving a fair outcome.
One of the most common questions is: how much does a pension lawyer in Kyiv cost? It should be noted that each law firm sets its own fees, giving clients the opportunity to choose the option that best suits their needs and budget.
However, choosing a lawyer is not only about price but also about competence, quality and reliability. ARES Law Firm offers clear and transparent pricing with no hidden fees, as well as an individual approach to every client.
How Much Does a Consultation with a Pension Lawyer Cost?
Our lawyers provide both oral and written consultations. An oral consultation includes a personal meeting with a lawyer, a detailed analysis of the documents and circumstances of your case, as well as recommendations regarding further steps for obtaining or recalculating your pension. The cost is UAH 1,000 for 30 minutes. A written consultation is provided remotely and consists of a detailed response to all questions submitted electronically, based on an analysis of the scanned documents provided and the applicable legislation. The cost of a written consultation is UAH 5,000.
Pension Calculation
Pension calculation is a process that requires accuracy and consideration of all factors affecting the amount of pension payments. Our lawyers carefully review information concerning insurance records, salary and preferential periods to ensure that nothing is overlooked. This approach helps to restore the client’s pension rights as fully as possible and obtain the correct pension amount without unnecessary delays. Based on our calculation, you will receive a clear understanding of the amount of pension payments you are legally entitled to receive, and we will recommend a plan of further action aimed at obtaining that amount. The cost of this service is UAH 5,000.
How Much Does a Lawyer Charge for Assistance with Obtaining a Pension?
If the Pension Fund has refused to grant a pension due to insufficient insurance record, age requirements or lack of recognised preferential service, our lawyers can take over the entire process. We independently prepare all necessary documents, submit requests to employers and archives where necessary to obtain certificates confirming employment, and prepare and submit the application to the Pension Fund. Your involvement is kept to a minimum. The cost of our comprehensive pension application service is UAH 10,000, including full legal support and consultations at all stages of the process.
Pension Cases in Court
There are situations where obtaining a pension without court proceedings is impossible. Court action is often necessary when the Pension Fund refuses to recognise periods of employment abroad or does not accept documents issued by a foreign employer. Problems may also arise because of errors in the employment record book, such as inaccuracies in a person’s name or dates, missing stamps or signatures. In other cases, archival certificates or preferential service may not be recognised, or the applicable legislation may be incorrectly interpreted. In such situations, court proceedings may be necessary to restore the person’s rights and secure the correct pension entitlement.
Our pension lawyer handles the case from the first step through to the actual granting or recalculation of the pension. We prepare statements of claim, responses, applications and motions, collect and organise evidence, and develop the legal strategy. Since the Pension Fund frequently appeals court judgments, we also provide representation before the appellate court and, where necessary, defend our clients’ rights before the Supreme Court. After obtaining a favourable judgment, we assist with its enforcement, monitor the actions of the Pension Fund and work to ensure that the pension is actually granted or recalculated rather than the judgment remaining unenforced.
In other words, we do not leave a pension case halfway through the process – we work to bring it to a practical result.
The cost of legal representation by a pension lawyer in court starts from UAH 20,000.
