Israel's Leading Interpol Notice Lawyers and Extradition Specialists
Our Interpol and Extradition Legal Team
Within 2 hours of contact, we review arrest warrants, Interpol notices, or extradition requests. For detained clients, we file provisional release motions within 48 hours before the Jerusalem or Tel Aviv District Court under Criminal Procedure Law Section 62, arguing specialty limitations and flight risk mitigation.
We simultaneously prepare Israeli court defence under Extradition Law 5714-1954 (challenging prima facie evidence, invoking treaty exceptions, raising human rights violations) and CCF application strategy (identifying Article 3 ICPO Constitution violations, gathering evidence of political motivation or data inaccuracies).
We submit comprehensive applications to the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL's Files, supported by legal briefs, diplomatic correspondence, and documentary evidence. Applications cite specific RPED violations and request deletion, correction, or access to data. Average processing time: 5-9 months.
Before the Israeli District Court, we present evidence on dual criminality failures, political offence exceptions, statute of limitations under Israeli law, and human rights concerns (torture risk, unfair trial, death penalty). We invoke treaty-specific limitations and seek diplomatic assurances from requesting states.
If extradition is ordered, we file appeals to the Israeli Supreme Court within 45 days, raising constitutional violations under Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty. Post-CCF deletion, we coordinate with Israeli authorities and border control to update databases and restore travel freedom.

Cases We've Successfully Defended
"I was arrested at Ben Gurion Airport on a Red Notice from a CIS country related to a business dispute. Within 72 hours, Adv. Cohen secured my release on bail and filed a comprehensive CCF application. Seven months later, INTERPOL deleted the notice entirely, citing political motivation and Article 3 violations. I can now travel freely throughout Europe and North America."
"The United States requested my extradition for alleged securities fraud. Adv. Friedman's knowledge of both US federal procedure and Israeli extradition law was invaluable. He identified fatal dual criminality defects — the conduct was not criminal under Israeli law. The Jerusalem District Court refused extradition, and the decision was upheld on appeal."
"Adv. Levi handled my Yellow Notice challenge with exceptional professionalism. She prepared a detailed CCF application demonstrating that the underlying charges were politically motivated and violated INTERPOL's neutrality rules. The Commission ordered the notice corrected within six months, removing the most damaging allegations."
