Maryna Pogibko

Advocate | Public International Law Specialist

Trained as an economist in Ukraine, Maryna earned her law degree from BPP University in the UK and passed the UK Bar exams with distinction. She is a member of Lincoln’s Inn, the UK Defence Extradition Lawyers’ Forum (DELF), the European Criminal Bar Association (ECBA), the Ukrainian National Bar Association and the Constitutional Justice Committee (Odesa Region Bar Council).

Maryna’s legal practice at London-based Amadeus Consultancy Limited is primarily focused on defending against state overreach and protecting human rights, with particular expertise in representing high-profile clients in complex cross-border investigations involving INTERPOL and other multilateral investigative bodies.

Additionally, Maryna has represented leading shipping companies from Eastern Europe and the Middle East, managing sanctions enforcement and related criminal prosecutions. In a recent highprofile case, she acted as the principal legal advisor in the defence of a Venezuelan Special Envoy who was unlawfully detained en route to Iran and extradited to the United States. This case, which involved significant violations of diplomatic and customary international law, as well as abuse of the INTERPOL system, culminated in a full pardon being granted by President Biden.
