Dmytro Konovalenko

Dmytro Konovalenko is an attorney with over five years of experience dedicated to defending clients against unwarranted INTERPOL Red Notices and extradition requests from countries such as Russia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and the United States. As a member of the International Bar Association, he leverages his expertise in INTERPOL and extradition law to protect clients’ rights in complex, multi-jurisdictional matters. He has successfully annulled Red Notices in cases involving economic crimes, political conflicts, and war crimes, where extradition requests can be particularly contentious.

For example, he played a pivotal role in the removal of a Red Notice against a Ukrainian parliament member falsely accused of bribery by Belarus. Additionally, he secured the dismissal of charges against an Austrian businessman by proving that Russia had misused INTERPOL to pursue him over commercial disputes. His proactive approach has consistently thwarted unjust arrests, including recently preventing the extradition of a Kenyan entrepreneur facing allegations linked to a business disagreement rather than criminal conduct. His efforts led to the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL Files removing the notice after reviewing the case.

Dmytro takes pride in conducting meticulous analyses of extradition cases, crafting robust legal arguments against unlawful extradition requests. His personal experiences uniquely position him to anticipate the challenges faced by clients from Eastern Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
