Our consulting firm’s story
In 2011, Mark Taylor, an American citizen, experienced difficulties in finding a lawyer who could help him immigrate to Ukraine, take care of the onerous paperwork and clearly explain how the country’s migration system worked. After meeting Petro Zalizniak, then a recent graduate from Migration Clinical Program in Italy, he helped create Zalizniak & Associates, a firm specialized in Ukraine immigration.
At Zalizniak & Associates, we find our strength in the combined years of studies and hard work which helped to deliver consistent and tangible results for our clients. We make sure we thoroughly understand their needs and find all possible courses of action to get them to their goals. We explain things clearly and go all the way to serve their interests, and we make sure their cases are resolved within the necessary time frames. We take the pressure off their shoulders so they can focus on the things that matter to them, while we take great care in making their journey to Ukraine as smooth as possible.

Mikhail:
I cannot thank Zalizniak & Associates enough for their exceptional support. As a Ukrainian living under French protection and later moving to Japan, I faced what felt like an impossible situation: Japan required a Ukrainian certificate of family status for my marriage, but I could not return to Ukraine, and my French documents were not accepted. Through a power of attorney, Petro Zalizniak successfully obtained my Ukrainian certificate remotely, something I believed could not be done. His deep understanding of the legal process not only made my marriage in Japan possible but also secured my future. Thank you again for choosing to help me and for guiding me through every step of this journey. Highly recommended to anyone in need of reliable and skilled assistance with Ukrainian legal documents abroad.

Que vous vouliez séjourner en Ukraine à titre personnel ou professionnel, je recommande sans réserve le cabinet Zalizniak & Associate. J'y ai trouvé de vrais spécialistes qualifiés du droit des étrangers, qui m'ont d'abord conseillé avec franchise, puis accompagné à chacune des étapes de mes démarches, allant même au-delà de mes attentes. J'ignore comment j'aurais fait sans eux : leur contribution m'a permis de sortir des méandres administratifs en m'épargnant de nombreux sujets d'inquiétude, et probablement d'écueils. Disponible à tout moment, sérieuse, loyale, proactive, l'équipe sait penser du point de vue de son client. Allez-y sans crainte, vous y trouverez une ligne claire à suivre pour atteindre votre objectifs ... Et des sourires amicaux !

As a foreign entrepreneur doing business in Ukraine, I received exceptional support from Zalizniak & Associates. They did not just provide legal services, but actively supported our business development and helped us establish a solid presence in Ukraine. Their lobbying capabilities and understanding of the local landscape were invaluable in opening doors and moving things forward much faster and smoother than we could have managed alone. Most importantly, they are extremely trustworthy, professional, and always act in the client’s best interest. I can highly recommend Zalizniak & Associates to any expat or international company looking for reliable, high-level support in Ukraine.
