Successful Court Ruling for Homeowners’ Association – Overturning a Fraudulent Settlement

Successful Court Ruling for Homeowners’ Association – Overturning a Fraudulent Settlement

Case Summary

Our firm successfully secured a court decision in favor of a Homeowners’ Association (HOA), leading to the cancellation of a previous ruling that had unlawfully removed real estate from its ownership through an improper court-approved settlement agreement. Although the property has not yet been returned, this ruling is a significant legal step toward restoring our client’s ownership rights.

During litigation, our legal team uncovered and presented evidence of fraudulent actions, demonstrating that the true beneficiaries of the illegal transfer had personally registered the property in their names. These individuals were not just representatives but direct beneficiaries and are attorneys at one of Kyiv’s top 10 law firms.

According to publicly available information, this law firm is closely linked to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko and is known to provide legal services to his family and administration. The fact that high-value real estate was unlawfully transferred and then registered under individuals associated with this firm raises serious concerns about the true beneficiaries behind the scheme.

Despite the complexities of the case and the influence surrounding the opposing side, our firm pursued justice without hesitation. We remain committed to protecting our clients’ property rights, exposing fraudulent transactions, and ensuring that no one—regardless of status or connections—is beyond legal scrutiny.
