Lawyer's assistance in exempting relatives of deceased servicemen from mobilization
Under martial law, mobilization remains an integral part of protecting the national interests of Ukraine. However, the legislation provides for the possibility of exemption from mobilization for certain categories of persons, including relatives of those killed or missing during hostilities. In particular, this applies to cases when close relatives died or went missing while participating in an anti-terrorist operation, implementing measures to ensure national security and defense, repelling and deterring armed aggression of the Russian Federation. In this article, we will examine in detail the legal grounds for exemption, the process of documentation, and the importance of engaging professional legal assistance.
Question
Do relatives of deceased or missing servicemen have the right to exemption from mobilization?
Answer
Yes, relatives of deceased or missing servicemen have the right to exemption from mobilization, provided that their status is properly documented.
Exemption from mobilization for relatives of deceased servicemen is a right provided for by the legislation of Ukraine, which guarantees social protection for this category of citizens. The registration of exemption requires a careful approach, including the preparation of documents, confirmation of kinship and circumstances of death, which often requires the professional assistance of a lawyer.
The current legislation of Ukraine provides for exemption from mobilization for close relatives of those killed or missing during hostilities, if this is confirmed by relevant documents.
The services of a military lawyer help relatives to properly prepare documents, apply to the competent authorities and, if necessary, appeal the refusal to release.
The release process may include both administrative procedures and judicial proceedings, which requires highly qualified legal support.
Main aspects of exemption from mobilization
According to Article 23 of the Law of Ukraine “On Mobilization Training and Mobilization”, exemption from mobilization may be applied to persons if their close relatives (husband, wife, son, daughter, father, mother, brother or sister) died or went missing under the following circumstances:
- During direct participation in an anti-terrorist operation.
During measures to ensure national security and defense.
During repelling and deterring armed aggression of the Russian Federation.
During ensuring national security and defense under martial law.
To be exempted from mobilization, you must prepare a package of documents, which includes a death certificate, a certificate of the circumstances of death or a document confirming the fact of the disappearance of the missing person, as well as confirmation of family ties. After that, you must submit an application to the territorial recruitment center along with the relevant documents. In the event of an unjustified refusal, the decision can be appealed in court.
The procedure for issuing a discharge involves several key stages, starting with a consultation with a military lawyer who will assess your situation and determine the optimal course of action.The next step is to collect and analyze documents confirming your right to dismissal, including certificates, references and confirmation of family ties, prepared with the help of a lawyer. If necessary, a lawyer will provide legal support at the territorial recruitment center or represent your interests in court, proving your right to dismissal.
