Legal Services for Extradition and Interpol Cases

Our law firm offers a full spectrum of specialized services designed to protect clients in the most challenging situations involving international extradition and Interpol activities. We develop bespoke legal strategies grounded in a deep understanding of international law and years of practical experience handling such sensitive extradition cases.

Defence Against International Extradition Requests

Receiving an international extradition request is a formidable challenge, requiring in-depth knowledge of applicable extradition treaties and the national laws of the requested state. Our extradition lawyers provide comprehensive extradition defense, starting with a detailed analysis of the legality and validity of the request, ensuring compliance with all procedural requirements and human rights standards.

We actively work to identify grounds for refusal of extradition, such as political motivation, risk of torture or inhuman treatment, statutes of limitation, or lack of dual criminality. Our objective is to ensure maximum protection of your rights and prevent unlawful transfer to another country.

Challenging and Removing Interpol Notices

The dissemination of an individual’s data through Interpol’s databases, particularly the issuance of an Interpol Red Notice or Blue Notice, can have devastating consequences, including travel restrictions, reputational damage, and the threat of arrest.

Our specialists possess profound knowledge of Interpol’s procedures and the workings of the Commission for the Control of Interpol’s Files (CCF). We conduct a thorough analysis of the grounds for an Interpol listing, prepare and file robust requests to challenge, correct, or secure the Interpol notice removal. Effective legal intervention often leads to the deletion of data from Interpol’s system and the restoration of our client’s rights and freedom of movement.

      The Extradition Process and Interpol Procedures

      Understanding your rights and the procedures involved is the first step towards a strong defense when facing potential extradition or issues with Interpol. This section provides key information to help you navigate these complex legal landscapes. While each case is unique, general knowledge of these processes can be empowering. We always recommend seeking personalized legal advice from an experienced extradition lawyer for your specific situation.

      Main Stages of International Extradition Proceedings

      International extradition proceedings can be lengthy and complex, varying significantly based on the countries involved and the applicable treaties. However, some common stages typically include:

      • Issuance of an Arrest Warrant: Often, the process begins with a domestic arrest warrant in the requesting state.
      • Extradition Request: The requesting state formally submits an extradition request to the authorities of the state where the individual is located. This request is usually supported by evidence.
      • Arrest and Provisional Arrest: The individual may be arrested in the requested state, sometimes based on an Interpol Red Notice, even before the formal request is received (provisional arrest).
      • Extradition Hearing(s): A court or competent authority in the requested state will conduct hearings to determine if the legal requirements for extradition are met. This includes verifying dual criminality, adherence to treaty obligations, and human rights safeguards.
      • Ministerial Decision: In many jurisdictions, even if a court approves extradition, a final decision is made by a government minister or executive authority.
      • Appeals: There are usually opportunities to appeal decisions made by courts or ministerial authorities. Our extradition lawyers guide clients through each of these stages, ensuring their rights are protected throughout.

      Importance of Timely Contacting an Extradition Lawyer

      When facing potential extradition or an Interpol alert, time is of the essence. Contacting an experienced extradition lawyer without delay is crucial for several reasons:

      • Early Intervention: An extradition attorney can often take preventative measures or begin building a defense strategy even before a formal extradition request is made or an arrest occurs.
      • Protection of Rights: From the moment you are detained or become aware of a request, your lawyer will ensure your rights are respected, including the right to legal counsel and the right against self-incrimination.
      • Navigating Complex Procedures: Extradition law is a specialized field. An experienced lawyer understands the intricate procedures, treaty provisions, and potential defenses that may not be apparent to a non-specialist.
      • Challenging Unlawful Actions: If there are grounds to challenge the legality of an arrest, an Interpol notice, or an extradition request, your lawyer can take immediate action.
      • Strategic Advice: An extradition lawyer can provide strategic advice on all available options, including voluntary surrender under certain negotiated conditions if appropriate. Prompt legal consultation can significantly impact the outcome of an extradition case.

      Areas of our Practice

      Extradition processes require high qualifications and a deep knowledge of the legislation of different the countries involved.

      An international arrest warrant is one of the most common mechanisms for the extradition of individuals. Most often, such situations are encountered by people against whom a red notice from Interpol has been issued.
      We thoroughly verify the legitimacy of the grounds for issuing an international arrest warrant and, in the event of violations, challenge it. In cases of being placed on the wanted list through Interpol, we organise negotiations and gather the necessary materials to prove the warrant’s unfounded nature or its non-compliance with current international law standards. Our task is to ensure the fundamental rights of the client, including the right to freedom and personal inviolability, as well as to prevent unlawful prosecution.

      White-Collar Crimes encompass a wide range of economic, financial, and corporate offences. Our specialists conduct a comprehensive review of materials and identify discrepancies or gaps in the evidence base.
      Often, the presence of accusations in white-collar crimes becomes a tool of pressure in commercial conflicts. We defend the legitimate interests of our clients during investigative and judicial procedures, as well as conduct negotiations with competent authorities to resolve the situation at an earlier stage.

      We analyse each international extradition order in accordance with the norms of national and international law to identify errors or inconsistencies in the documents. It is critically important that, in the case of extradition, human rights are not violated. We monitor all potential risks associated with torture, inhuman or degrading treatment, and also use these arguments in defence.
      We accompany clients in all judicial instances, acting as advocates, prepare and submit appeals, petitions, provide legal consultations on related issues (immigration, criminal law, civil disputes).

      FAQ

      Can I be arrested and detained pending the review of the extradition request?

      Yes, in most cases, the person for whom an international extradition order has been made can be detained even before the official consideration of the case begins. This is possible within the framework of temporary arrest if the states have a corresponding extradition treaty. Temporary detention allows the authorities to hold the suspect while preparing a formal extradition order. However, in each specific case, there are possible ways to challenge the arrest, and experienced extradition lawyers can help secure release on bail or cancellation of the detention.

      Who decides whether I should be extradited?

      The decision on extradition is made by the national judicial system of the country where the wanted person is located. The process usually goes through several stages: initial review of the request by state authorities; court proceedings, where the legality of the extradition, the presence of grounds for refusal, and compliance with human rights are assessed; final decision by executive bodies (for example, the Ministry of Justice or the head of state).

      Which countries do not have extradition treaties with the USA?

      Far from all countries have signed extradition treaties with the United States. Therefore, their cooperation on such matters is limited. Such states include China, Russia, the UAE, Iran, Belarus, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, and others. However, the absence of a treaty does not mean that extradition is completely impossible, as the US can use diplomatic arrangements, mutual agreements or other legal mechanisms to pursue a suspect outside its jurisdiction.

      Is it possible to cancel an Interpol Red Notice?

      Yes, it is possible to challenge and seek the deletion of an Interpol Red Notice. While a Red Notice is not an international arrest warrant, it functions as an alert to law enforcement worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest an individual pending extradition.

      What crimes will the US extradite for?

      The U.S. will extradite for offenses that are crimes in both countries (dual criminality), typically including fraud, drug trafficking, money laundering, murder, and white-collar crimes. The crime must be punishable by more than one year in prison under U.S. law.

      What are the rules of extradition?

      U.S. extradition law follows treaties with individual countries. Key rules include dual criminality, non-political offenses, no extradition for military crimes, and fair trial guarantees. Requests go through the Department of State and federal courts under 18 U.S. Code § 3184.

      What is extradite law?

      Extradite law refers to legal procedures and treaties governing the transfer of fugitives between countries. In the U.S., it’s regulated by federal statutes, bilateral treaties, and international law, ensuring due process and protection of constitutional rights.

      What states have no extradition laws?

      All U.S. states allow extradition. There is no “safe” U.S. state without extradition laws. However, some states may delay or resist extradition due to procedural issues or local discretion, but they still operate under the U.S. Constitution’s Extradition Clause (Article IV, Section 2) and the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act (UCEA).
