What is the basis of legal assistance to military pensioners
The law "On pension provision..." stipulates that military personnel have the right to choose the type of pension according to their own wishes. That is, declaring the need to increase payments, in fact, a citizen can switch from one type of payments to another. As a rule, if a legal consultation is conducted for a military pensioner, then at the first meetings the lawyer explains the procedure for working in this matter.
First of all, the specialist studies, prepares and sends to the authorized body a statement on the need to provide a certificate that describes the amount of monetary support when recalculating the pension. At the same time, the lawyer clearly monitors compliance with the deadlines for providing the specified document. To prepare and implement this stage, a lawyer will need:
● Client's passport
● Pension certificate.
At the next stage, the specialist receives an official letter from the Pension Fund on accrual and calculation of the pension. On the basis of this letter, the preparation and sending of the application on the need to recalculate the state payment for the military begins. Further, legal assistance to military pensioners is implemented as follows:
● The client's lawyer checks whether there are exemptions from paying court fees and provides receipts.
● The lawyer prepares and sends to the local judicial bodies a statement of claim on the need to transfer the pension by the Pension Fund. If necessary, attorney requests are sent, additional documents are collected.
● The lawyer receives the court's decision to recalculate the pension and controls the process of implementing this decision.
At the same time, during all legal proceedings, the lawyer accompanies the client at all meetings. Based on the results of receiving the court's decision, he prepares statements, petitions, objections and other documentation as needed. The procedure of the specialist varies and is determined individually, depending on the case.
