My son is serving time for drugs, organized group, even though he was only a courier. In November 2024 we ordered a cassation appeal from Vasily Alexandrovich, the court was scheduled in March, and the result was the cancellation of the sentence — now a new trial awaits my son. Thank you for your hard work, intelligence, and ingenuity in resolving our situation. Incomparable to the poor lawyer we had before! Now we’re keeping our fingers crossed and hoping for a suspended sentence.
I’ve been serving time near Tambov for 4 years, mentally exhausted and losing hope. Some guys advised me to contact Vladimir Volkov, who prepared a cassation appeal to the Supreme Court of Russia. Others in the colony write complaints on their own and get no results, but my cassation “worked.” As a result, 3 years were removed from my sentence under Article 111 of the Criminal Code, and in autumn 2024 I can apply for parole. Thank God you exist!
Мой брат сидит уже 8 лет за двойное убийство, нашли ваш сайт, заказали кассационную жалобу и особо не рассчитывали на результат - потому что раньше обжаловали приговор и было без изменений, а зря! Брату смягчили наказание с 18 лет до 12 лет, и это очень большое счастье для меня и нашей мамы, которая уже старенькая и очень ждет сына. Спасибо Алена и Григорий!
Муж работал директором в фирме по доставке цветов, на павильон напали и в драке он сильно поранил преступника. Но дело возбудили против мужа и в результате наказали на 5 лет в колонии. По совету хороших знакомых, работавших в МВД, я заключила договор с Василием Александровичем. В результате дело пересмотрели и мужа отпустили, применив статью о самообороне. Я очень благодарна Василию за добросовестную работу
Сын связался с наркотиками и в один момент моя жизнь перевернулась. В отношении него возбудили уголовное дело по эпизодам сбыта и осудили на 13 лет 8 месяцев. Моя дочь, по рекомендации хороших знакомых, наняла команду Василия Александровича. Дело вела Точилина Виктория , и в кассационной инстанции разрушила приговор! Дело пересмотрели и сыну переквалифицировали обвинение на хранение, в результате чего он вышел за отсиженным. Большое человеческое спасибо Василию и Виктории! Всем рекомендую!
У меня парня обвинили в изнасиловании малолетней девочки. Он попал под подозрение, потому что с друзьями отдыхал рядом на реке. Он вину не признавал, но сотрудники полиции уверяли меня, что именно он совершил это, и что якобы есть неопровержимые доказательства! Я была в оцепенении. Его осудили на 12 лет. В кассации я привлекла Василия Александровича, о котором ходили превосходные отзывы. И мне очень повезло, потому что приговор был отменен, а парня оправдали с правом на реабилитацию.
Я летала с друзьями в Сочи, где была задержана полицией. Обвинена по ч. 2 ст. 228 УК РФ, вину признала, но мне дали реальный срок. Мама по отзывам нашла компанию Яланжи и Партнеры, юрист Григорий активно приступил к моей защите, - написал жалобу и мы стали ждать. В результате срок поменяли на условный. Все благодаря очень эффективной помощи Григория, спасибо от моей матери, которая является пенсионером, и потратила очень много здоровья на мою защиту!
В отношении меня возбудили дело по ст. 111 УК РФ ч 4, так получилось, что в ходе распития спиртного моя жена бросилась на меня с ножом, а я неловко защищался и это привело к смерти жены. К Василию Александровичу я обратился за помощью по совету друга. Он в кассации доказал, что я не умышлено убил супругу и приговор изменили на ч. 1 ст. 109 УК РФ. Очень ему благодарен! Рекомендую всем!
Тверской суд признал меня виновным по многим статьям и назначил наказание в виде 14 лет лишения свободы и апелляция прошла без изменений. Находясь в СИЗО перед отправкой в колонию, я услышал про то, что есть волшебник, который со слов других осужденных, помог очень многим. После заключения договора Василий Александрович дотошно ознакомился с делом, нашел ошибки обвинения, составил грамотную и подробную жалобу на приговор от моего имени. И случилось чудо, судьи изменили мой приговор, убрали 127 и 222 статьи, а по 105 назначили 6 лет! Меня отпустили в начале года по УДО! Огромное спасибо Василию! Он просто чудесный человек! Всем рекомендую!
Муж осужден за сбыт наркотиков к 10 годам лишения свободы. Мама нашла хорошего консультанта – Алену и наняла на кассацию. Она смогла добиться чуда, - 2 кассационный суд убрал сбыт, и переквалифицировал на ч. 2 ст. 228 (хранение), по которой оставил 2 года 8 месяцев срока. С учетом отбытого СИЗО через месяц муж был дома! Огромное спасибо!!!!
Обвинялся в краже мобильника у спящего мужчины, но я не совершал этого преступления. Мой отец вышел на Василия Александровича по рекомендации знакомого "сидельца". Он сделал все в кассации. Уголовное дело в отношении меня прекращено полностью, за отсутствием состава преступления, с признанием реабилитации! Большое человеческое спасибо!
Благодаря Владимиру Волкову обвинение сына переквалифицировали на ч. 3 ст. 30, п. «г» ч. 4 ст. 228.1. При помощи родни, которая дала телефон Владимира и его помощника Григория. Они составили сильную жалобу на приговор и в суде кассационной инстанции было смягчение приговора и применение ст 62!!! Очень благодарны профессионалам! Результат превосходный! К делу подошли с уверенностью и педантичностью, тщательно изучили все. Большой труд и внимание к деталям и к человеку, что редкость в наше время.
Я являюсь бывшим сотрудником МВД. По рекомендации коллег, обратился к Василию Александровичу, т.к. наслышан о нем и хорошие отзывы были. О выборе не пожалел. Благодаря его грамотной позиции, мое уголовное дело по ст. 163 УК РФ удалось переквалифицировать на 330 УК!
Приговором Красносельского суда я осужден по ч. 3 ст. 264 УК РФ к реальному сроку в колонии. На стадии обжалования приговора, по рекомендациям друзей, обратился к Григорию. Им написана правильная кассационная жалоба. Приговор мой суд кассационной инстанции изменил, поменяв срок на условный! Спасибо большое Григорий – грамотный юрист и приятный человек, работает очень уверенно!

We answer your questions (FAQ's)
A TRP is the first step toward legalizing the stay of a foreign citizen in Russia. Obtaining a TRP gives you the right to officially live and work in the region where the permit is issued, without the need to apply for a work patent.
To get a TRP, you must submit an application to the Ministry of Internal Affairs office at your intended place of residence, attaching your passport, photos, proof of income, and a medical certificate. For certain categories, there is a simplified procedure: for spouses of Russian citizens, participants of the State Resettlement Program, and those born in the RSFSR.
It is important to understand that TRP quotas are limited, so proper preparation of documents and timely submission greatly increase your chances.

A PRP is the next step after a TRP and offers far more opportunities. With a PRP, you can freely travel throughout Russia, work in any region without restrictions, access medical services, and apply for social benefits.
The PRP is issued for 5 years with the right to renewal. To obtain it, you must reside in Russia with a TRP for at least 8 months, have stable income, housing, and no violations of migration laws. Some categories of foreign citizens can apply for PRP immediately, bypassing TRP — for example, citizens of Belarus, native Russian speakers, and highly qualified specialists.
Errors in the document package or missed deadlines often lead to refusals, which is why having a lawyer’s assistance helps avoid problems.

Russian citizenship grants the full range of rights: from unrestricted employment to participation in elections. A simplified procedure is available for spouses of Russian citizens, parents of Russian children, participants of the State Resettlement Program, as well as people originating from former USSR republics.
In this case, documents can be submitted without the usual requirement of residing in Russia with a PRP for 5 years. The applicant must confirm knowledge of the Russian language, provide proof of income, and show a clean criminal record.
In practice, mistakes in paperwork — missing translations, lack of notarization, or incomplete documents — often cause significant delays. That’s why it is crucial to prepare the full set of documents in advance and know exactly how to file them properly.

An entry ban is one of the most common problems foreign citizens face. It may be imposed for violating migration rules, overstaying, unpaid fines, or providing false information. To lift the ban, you must appeal the decision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the border service through the courts.
It is important to understand that each case is individual: sometimes it is enough to prove that the violation was corrected or insignificant, while in other cases strong legal arguments and supporting documents are required. A properly prepared application and the professional involvement of a lawyer significantly increase the chances of success. Independent attempts often lead to formal refusals, which is why legal experience plays a decisive role.
💬 Leave a request — don’t wait until your case drags on. We will review your situation and immediately assess whether there is a chance to cancel the ban.

Yes, such decisions can be appealed in court. Deportation or administrative removal is imposed in cases of serious violations of migration law, but the authorities do not always act lawfully. A foreign citizen has the right to file a complaint in court within 10 days from the date of receiving the order.
It is crucial to act quickly, since in some cases the enforcement of the decision begins immediately. Grounds for appeal may include family circumstances, the presence of underage children who are Russian citizens, long-term residence in Russia, as well as mistakes made by the migration authorities when processing documents.
A well-prepared appeal can suspend the deportation procedure and lead to its complete cancellation.

A refusal to issue documents is not a final verdict. Most often, refusals are linked to formal mistakes: an incomplete document package, incorrect translation, inaccurate proof of income or housing. Sometimes the reason given is “a threat to national security” or administrative violations.
Such a decision can be appealed — first through the Ministry of Internal Affairs in an administrative procedure, and then in court if necessary.
It is essential to carefully review the text of the refusal, identify its weak points, and prepare evidence to challenge it. Practice shows that a well-prepared complaint with the right legal arguments can overturn the refusal and allow you to continue the process of obtaining your documents.

Yes, a child can obtain Russian citizenship even if the parents are not citizens of the Russian Federation. The most common grounds are: if one of the parents already holds Russian citizenship, or if the child was born in Russia and the parents are unable to provide citizenship of their own country. In addition, children adopted by Russian citizens automatically receive Russian citizenship.
To apply, you will need the child’s birth certificate, parents’ documents, and an application. Such cases are considered socially significant, so the state aims to simplify the procedure. However, mistakes in paperwork can delay the process.

Every foreign citizen is required to register for migration at their place of stay within 7 days after entering the country. If the registration period is about to expire, it can be extended if there are valid reasons, such as signing an employment contract, studying, undergoing medical treatment, or family circumstances.
The extension is processed at the Ministry of Internal Affairs office at the place of residence or through the hosting party (for example, an employer or relatives).
Failure to comply with deadlines may result in fines and even an entry ban. To avoid problems, it is important to monitor the dates in advance and submit the documents on time.

Losing documents is a common situation that can lead to serious consequences. The first step is to contact the police and officially report the loss. Next, you must apply to your country’s consulate to restore your passport and contact the Ministry of Internal Affairs to obtain a duplicate of your migration card.
If this is not done in time, problems may arise during inspections or when leaving the country. To avoid fines or deportation, it is important to act quickly and properly complete all paperwork. A lawyer can help speed up the process and minimize risks.

In most cases, Russia requires applicants to renounce their previous citizenship when obtaining Russian citizenship. However, there are exceptions. For example, citizens of certain CIS countries, or cases where renunciation is impossible under the laws of the applicant’s home country.
In such situations, a person may keep dual citizenship, but is required to notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs within 60 days after receiving a Russian passport.
Failure to meet this requirement can result in fines and issues with the migration authorities. Therefore, it is important to determine in advance whether your specific case falls under these exceptions.

Failure to meet this requirement can result in fines and issues with the migration authorities. Therefore, it is important to determine in advance whether your specific case falls under these exceptions.
Obtaining Russian citizenship requires preparing a fairly extensive set of documents. The standard list includes:
All documents must be translated into Russian and notarized. Mistakes in paperwork or even the absence of a single certificate can result in refusal. That is why it is important to carefully check the list of requirements in advance and consult a lawyer.
- Application form
- Passport of the foreign citizen
- Migration card
- Documents confirming income or employment
- Proof of knowledge of the Russian language
- Marriage and children’s birth certificates (if applicable)
All documents must be translated into Russian and notarized. Mistakes in paperwork or even the absence of a single certificate can result in refusal. That is why it is important to carefully check the list of requirements in advance and consult a lawyer.
Registration at the place of stay is mandatory for all foreign citizens. It is arranged through a hosting party — this may be a landlord, a relative, or an employer. Within 7 working days after entering Russia, a notification of arrival must be submitted to the Ministry of Internal Affairs office or through a Multifunctional Center (MFC).
If you change your address, you must go through the registration process again.
Lack of registration results in fines and may lead to an entry ban in the future. If a property owner refuses to provide registration, a lawyer can help prepare a complaint and protect your rights.

Extension is possible only if there are valid grounds: employment under a labor contract, study, medical treatment, marriage to a Russian citizen, or filing documents for TRP or PRP. In such cases, the stay is extended for the duration of the grounds.
The extension must be arranged before the current period of stay expires, otherwise there is a risk of fines and removal from the country. The application is submitted to the Ministry of Internal Affairs office, together with supporting documents.
The earlier the documents are submitted, the higher the chances of avoiding problems. Many foreigners wait until the last moment, which often results in refusal. Legal assistance ensures proper processing of the extension and guarantees lawful stay in the country.

Migration issues in Russia are among the most complex and confusing. A single mistake in paperwork can lead to refusal, an entry ban, or even deportation. In this article, we explain how a migration lawyer helps foreign nationals and their families obtain TRP, PRP, and citizenship, appeal decisions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, lift entry bans, and stop deportation.
Migration Lawyer: Helping Foreigners in Russia
Who is a migration lawyer and why do you need one?
Migration law in Russia is complex and constantly changing. A single mistake in paperwork can cost you months of waiting, a refusal, or even an entry ban. A migration lawyer is a specialist who helps foreigners legalize their stay in Russia, obtain a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP), Permanent Residence Permit (PRP), and citizenship, as well as defend against deportation and appeal decisions of migration authorities.
A lawyer does more than paperwork. Their task is to analyze your unique situation, find the optimal path, and see it through to the result. For some, that means obtaining PRP, for others — lifting an entry ban, and for others — appealing deportation in court.
What issues do clients most often face?
Obtaining TRP
A Temporary Residence Permit is the first step toward legalization. But quotas are limited, and even minor mistakes in applications or medical certificates almost always lead to refusal. A lawyer knows how to gather and file documents correctly.
Obtaining PRP
A Permanent Residence Permit grants broader rights: the ability to live in any region, work without restrictions, access healthcare, and apply for social benefits. We support the process from filing to receiving the document.
Russian Citizenship
For many, this is the ultimate goal. There are simplified procedures for spouses of Russian citizens, parents of Russian children, and participants in the resettlement program. A lawyer will guide you through the right pathway and help avoid refusal.
Entry Ban
One of the most painful problems. Entry bans may be imposed for overstaying, unpaid fines, or errors in documents. Importantly, they can be lifted. This requires filing a complaint with the Ministry of Internal Affairs or a lawsuit in court.
Deportation and Removal
Even if a deportation order has already been issued, it can still be appealed — especially if the foreigner has family, Russian children, or long-term residence. The key is to act quickly and competently.
Refusals of TRP, PRP, and Citizenship
Most often, refusals result from improper paperwork. But refusals can be appealed, proving that the authority made an error or overlooked important circumstances.
Why work with a lawyer instead of handling it yourself?
- Laws and regulations change constantly. What worked last year may now lead to refusal.
- Many foreigners don’t know about their right to appeal — but complaints to the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the court often change the outcome.
- A single mistake in paperwork can delay the process for months. Fixing errors later is far more costly than doing it right from the start.
- Lawyers have practical experience: they know which arguments migration authorities accept — and which they ignore.
- Free consultation: we review your documents and explain your chances.
- Case analysis: we determine the best path (TRP, PRP, citizenship, appeal of entry ban).
- Preparation: we gather the complete set of documents.
- Representation: we assist during submission or represent you in court.
- Result: from obtaining a permit to canceling a deportation order.
- 15 years of experience and over 3,000 successful migration cases.
- Nationwide service: in-person and remote support.
- Narrow specialization in migration law.
- Transparent pricing with installment options and no extra fees.
- First consultation — free of charge.
