Short answer

A foreign national or overseas lawyer needs two coordinated files: the Georgian power and deadline, and the foreign process or data said to trigger it.

Understand your situation

Speak with a local lawyer when a case involves more than one country

Being stopped abroad is stressful, especially when you do not understand the language or the reason for the stop. Start by finding out which Georgian authority is involved and what document has been issued.

Tell us the person’s location, citizenship, preferred language and any known hearing time. A Georgian criminal lawyer can explain the local proceedings and consider the foreign documents separately. If you already have a lawyer abroad, we can discuss how to coordinate the work.

What we need to understand first

01

Separate Georgian proceedings from the foreign process or INTERPOL data

02

Secure understandable communication and interpretation

03

Coordinate consular contact without treating it as legal representation

04

Align Georgian deadlines with foreign counsel

What to expect when you contact us

Start with a short account of what happened and any known deadline. Before agreeing to act, we check conflicts and availability and explain the proposed work, fees and communication arrangements. Ask us who will handle your matter and what the next step involves.
