Dear friends,

I've decided to open this page since I was nominated for the position of a judge of the European Court of Human Rights. Recent Ukrainian elections of candidates for this post and subsequent media discussions showed a necessity to introduce myself to a wide audience - those whom I didn't have a chance to meet on my professional way.

I hope an article from the “Advocate” legal magazine  and other materials here will give you a better idea of my activities.
Furthermore, having heard different comments on these elections and their participants, I would like to share with you  my opinion in this respect.

I've also used this opportunity to make a page “Human Rights practice – procedural documents” (in Ukrainian only) which, I hope, will be helpful for young lawyers.

I placed here my procedural documents and defence speeches for diversity of cases which I dealt with at different times. Not insisting on their universalism and perfection, I nevertheless set them just as an example which can be used in legal work.
