Very professional company with a customer-centric attitude. They helped with a complicated case, all ended up being seamless, though before it took 1.5 years of non-stop back and forth. Our leading lawyer did all the preparations, consultations and paperwork.
Definitely highly recommended!

Oleg Barbakov

I want to thank the team of professionals of Alex Zernopolsky! They helped my son in obtaining Israeli citizenship! The work was done in a timely manner, all obstacles were overcome, and the results were excellent! The staff themselves are responsive, kind people, always ready to help with any request! It’s a pleasure to work with them! Thank you to Alex for the help and to his entire team: Anna, Valeria, and Yana! I wish them health, and I’m confident that they will continue to help people for a long time!

Miri and Sergey

We are a couple who came to lawyer Alex Zernopolsky after numerous rejections from the Ministry of Interior, during the process of obtaining citizenship for my husband. We had faced a very unpleasant experience and were literally shaken by repeated encounters with officials who were insensitive to people’s feelings, and their comments were inappropriate, to put it mildly. After turning to the Ministry of Interior, Alex and lawyer Anna from his office, who were always ready to listen to us and always there for us, my husband finally received citizenship a week ago. This happened thanks to the professional and humane approach of Alex Zernopolsky’s law firm. We are very happy that fate brought us together and we can recommend this office to everyone who wants to feel at home, and the lawyers will take care of your interests. This is the best that exists in today’s market in Israel. Alex delivers on what he promises, one hundred percent.

A lawyer in Israel is not a luxury, but a guide through the bureaucratic hell that is the state apparatus. However, it’s hard to call it an apparatus because none of the circles of hell exchange information with any other, ordinary demons have far more authority than their superiors, and sinners can appeal to the law – earthly or heavenly – as much as they like, but in every district office of hell, there is an ‘internal instruction’ that contradicts each law. (And then another one that contradicts the previous one.) In the end, laws come and go with each government, but the demons stay at their cauldrons for generations. Perhaps this system was invented by the founding fathers themselves to prevent the usurpation of power in the future. Try to build totalitarianism in a country where every street-level bureaucrat is, at heart, an anarcho-syndicalist. Therefore, going to court in Israel is not a challenge to the state, but a normal way to start a dialogue with it. It’s all like at the market: if you don’t bargain, you don’t respect. If you don’t sue, it means you don’t acknowledge. So an Israeli lawyer is always a bit more than just a lawyer. He combines the skills of Virgil, a stalker, a dramatic actor, a social worker, an ethnographer, and a psychotherapist. At least, a good lawyer does. I was incredibly lucky with my lawyer. With Alex Zernopolsky, we not only won the case. I found thirty new research topics – so fascinating was the structure of the Israeli bureaucracy ‘from the inside’. Now we will write in co-authorship.

Maxim Katz

I personally use the services of this law firm, and when someone from our team needs some help, we turn to Zernopolsky. So I am happy to recommend him.
The office of Alex deals with any issues in the field of immigration law in Israel: repatriation, legalization of family members, proof of paternity and kinship through DNA, and any complex cases.

Alexander Kanevsky

I express my immense gratitude to the team at Alex Zernopolsky Law Office and personally to Alexander for helping me with my issues in Israel. Everything was done within the agreed time frame and at a high professional level. In every matter, I felt careful guidance, foresight, and human participation. I am very satisfied with the cooperation. I recommend!

Alyona Rozinova

I want to thank Alex Zernopolsky for the competent legal advice and sensitive support on the issue of repatriation. Alex and his team were always in touch, delved into the essence of the problems, and promptly offered solutions. I also note the politeness and respectful attitude towards the client.

Mikhail Pellivert

Not an advertisement, but a recommendation! I don’t know how often you have legal questions about various aspects of life in Israel, but I’ll venture to guess quite frequently. Pay attention to the channel (https://t.me/pravo_israel) of lawyer Alex Zernopolsky, – you will learn a lot of useful and instructive things. Here, for example, is a list (https://t.me/pravo_israel/129) of countries you can enter without a visa with a laissez-passer. In short, I sincerely recommend subscribing.

In Israel, where every third person calls themselves a lawyer, it’s really not easy to find a good one. A childhood friend introduced me to the office of Alex Zernopolsky in 2015. And since then, if any legal issues arise (and they do often in Israel), I go to Alex. All the intricacies and details about repatriation and the post-repatriation period. Family reunification problems. Labor conflicts. Difficulties with banks. Gay marriages. Traditional marriages. Certificates. Apostilles. Notaries. Passport. Laissez-passer. Driver’s licenses. How to bypass 5 windows in two weeks, not two months. How not to go crazy dealing with the immigration service. And millions of other problems in a country where bureaucracy isn’t very friendly to people — that’s for Alex and his guys. And if you find other lawyers in Tel Aviv who respond to messages and calls on the first try, let me know. So far, I’ve only encountered such luxury in Israel here.

Kateryna Popovych

We turned to the office of lawyer Zernopolsky with a rather complex case. And, to be honest, we were quite skeptical about lawyers based on unsuccessful experiences of cooperation with lawyers in the past. But Alex dispelled all our doubts from the first meeting and showed how real professionals work. Throughout our cooperation, we did not worry about anything, Alex was always in touch and clearly answered all our questions. I highly recommend the law office of Alex Zernopolsky. Without exaggeration, he is the most professional lawyer you can trust! I express my great gratitude to the law office of Zernopolsky, and in particular to you, Alex.

Vladimir Brailovsky

We are grateful to Alex Zernopolsky for his significant help in our difficult situation. We were denied citizenship three times, but thanks to Alex and his firm’s efforts, we obtained a residence permit and are confident that our problem will be fully resolved soon.

Roldugin Andrew

I used the services of Alex Zernopolsky’s office in a rather complex issue. I am very impressed with the competence and professionalism in the matter of repatriation, by proving kinship through a DNA test. Now Alex is handling the legalization of my spouse in Israel. Thank you for the support and accompaniment!

Olga Melentyeva

I want to thank Alexander for his very good work. This is a person who really does his job 100%. If you turn to him for help, believe me, you will never regret it, no matter what country you live in. There is never any deception here. I was very satisfied with his work. Thank you

Elizabeth Kondratenko

My husband and I turned to a law firm because we encountered serious problems with the STUPRO procedure at the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Holon regarding the affiliation of my minor daughter from my first marriage. I want to express my immense gratitude to the lawyers who accompanied and resolved issues in our case, especially I want to thank Yuri Patrick, who approached the resolution of our issue very professionally and responsibly, and as a result, my daughter and I finally received the documents after a long ordeal. The only thing I regret is not turning to this law firm earlier. Many thanks to the company for the work done!!!

Anastasiya Porokhnia

I want to say thank you to Patrick Yuri, who handled our case. Pleasant, diplomatic, and most importantly: Competent! I recommend!

Olympiad Zabrodin

My impressions of Alex Zernopolsky’s office are the most wonderful! When I had to urgently address a very delicate issue, after an unsuccessful attempt with another lawyer, I won’t mention his name, I was initially not too confident. And as it turned out, it was in vain. In Zernopolsky’s office, they treated my request very delicately and attentively. And to my surprise and satisfaction, everything was resolved quite quickly. They always accompanied us, especially since I am not good with the language. They were with us until the last moment. For that, I am immensely grateful. I wish that others will be as lucky as we were. Prosperity and good luck to this office!

Liberty Lucky
