Bank account blocking is a common situation that any business or individual may face. One of the most frequent reasons for such action is a request to confirm the legality of the source of funds. This is done to comply with legislation aimed at preventing the legalization of proceeds from crime and ensuring financial transparency.
For a client, this always creates significant inconvenience. In the case of a legal entity, the negative consequences may include the freezing of working capital, delays in payments, and overall disruption of the company’s usual financial cycle.
Any delay in unblocking an account can negatively affect business processes, supply chains, and relationships with counterparties. An effective solution requires a clear understanding of the bank’s requirements, proper document preparation, and competent interaction with the financial institution. Without professional legal support, achieving this is extremely difficult.
This case describes exactly such a situation.

Project Features Caused by the Specifics of Working with Monobank
A client (whose data is protected under an NDA) approached the lawyers of the Lawrange law firm after facing a blockage of their Monobank account. The financial institution required documents confirming the legality of the source of funds.
The account blocking restricted the client’s ability to:
- make payments;
- manage funds;
- maintain normal cash flow operations.
All of this created risks of financial delays, negative impacts on business processes, and loss of profit.
The specifics of working with Monobank involve strict control and clear requirements regarding the form and content of documents confirming the source of funds. In these matters, the bank applies strict standards: any inaccuracies or incomplete information may lead to repeated blocking and additional checks.
Therefore, we had to:
- thoroughly analyze the reason for the blocking and the list of documents requested by the bank;
- collect evidence confirming the legality of the source of funds;
- properly formalize the documents in accordance with Monobank’s requirements.
This approach ensured full compliance with the bank’s internal procedures and accelerated the unblocking process.
Our Team’s Actions
The Lawrange team conducted a detailed analysis of the information provided by the client and identified the necessary documents to confirm the lawful source of funds.
As part of the project, we:
- reviewed and systematized all financial documents, including bank statements, supply agreements, and payment orders;
- prepared a complete set of documents in the required format, taking into account Monobank’s standards and requirements;
- advised the client on all submission details, including the procedure for providing documents and the wording of explanations;
- ensured control over the accuracy, completeness, and logical consistency of the submitted information to eliminate the possibility of additional requests from the bank;
- organized prompt communication with the financial institution to speed up the document review process.
Thanks to our attention to detail, we minimized bureaucratic risks, accelerated the document review process, and ensured the client’s confidence in a successful outcome. Every action of our team was aimed at reducing the duration of the account blocking and preventing potential repeated restrictions.
Result: Account Unblocking and Restoration of Control Over Funds
Within three weeks from the moment the client approached us, the Monobank account was fully unblocked, and access to all financial operations was restored.
The results achieved through the expertise of our lawyers and close communication with the client include:
- Full control over financial operations. The client regained the ability to make payments, transfer funds, and receive incoming payments without restrictions. Normal financial operations were restored, and business processes continued without interruption.
- Legal confirmation of the legitimacy of funds. The prepared documents met the bank’s requirements and proved the lawful origin of the funds. Thus, we also prevented future risks: thanks to reliable legal support, the likelihood of repeated blocking was minimized.
- Reduced operational risks. A systematic approach to document preparation and interaction with the bank allowed the client to avoid delays, penalties, or other negative consequences for the business.
