Alina joined QualitySolicitors Parkinson Wright in September 2025 and is a paralegal in the Corporate and Commercial department at the Worcester office.
She attended the Oles Honchar Dnipro National University of Ukraine where she obtained a Batchelor of Law (Hons) degree in 2004. This qualification is verified and recognised in the UK with a statement of Comparability issued by the UK ENIC. Post qualification she practised Corporate and Commercial Law in Ukraine* before moving to England in March 2022.
*The Law Society guidance for Ukrainian Lawyers Practising in England and Wales states: Ukrainian lawyers who relocate to England and Wales are entitled to practise under their home-country professional title. They do not need to qualify as solicitors nor sit any exam in order to practise here. They can provide legal services in Ukrainian law, international law and English law (including drafting contracts) with the only exception of a small number of activities). Ukrainian lawyers who wish to gain the professional title of 'solicitor' can sit the Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE), though this is not necessary to practise under their home professional title (see above).
Alina is currently completing her LLM in International Business law and planning to qualify as a Solicitor in England and Wales (SQE) in 2026.
Her native language is Ukrainian, she is also fluent in English and Russian.
