Arzinger has successfully secured the release from custody of Oleksandr Dorohan – Director of the Together We Power! charitable organization – in criminal proceedings related to his activity.

According to the firm, in early May 2023, the Khmilnyk City District Court of Vinnytsia Oblast sentenced Dorohan to six years in prison, banned him from engaging in humanitarian aid activities for three years, and confiscated all his property. "However, thanks to the work of the defense lawyers, such a harsh and unfair conviction was overturned," Arzinger reported.

In addition, Dorohan, who had been held in custody continuously for more than eight months, was released from custody on August 17, 2023, at the request of his defense lawyers. "The Court, adhering to the principles of competitiveness and legality, came to a reasonable conclusion that it was necessary to change the measure of restraint," the firm announced.

According to Arzinger, Dorohan had donated more than 64 vehicles to the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The Arzinger team was led by Partner Iurii Sukhov.
