Who Is Elena Petrova?
Born and raised in Moscow, Elena saw injustice early. Her father worked in construction, her mother was a nurse—and both faced unfair treatment at work more than once. That lit a fire in her.
Now in her 30s, Elena is one of the most talked-about labor lawyers in Russia. She’s become a media sensation for her fierce advocacy, flawless courtroom style, and zero tolerance for exploitation.
Her nickname in the press?
“The Legal Bombshell of Moscow.”
And she wears it proudly.
What Does She Fight For?
Elena specializes in worker rights, and she’s made it her life’s work to challenge:
- Unpaid wages
- Illegal dismissals
- Unsafe working conditions
- Discrimination (gender, age, disability, etc.)
- Employer retaliation against whistleblowers
She represents factory workers, delivery drivers, waitresses, teachers, cleaners, programmers—anyone who’s being taken advantage of and doesn’t know where to turn.
Elena’s 5 Rules Every Worker in Russia Should Know
Whether you’re in Moscow or Magnitogorsk, Elena says you have rights—but you need to know them.
1. Get Everything in Writing
Verbal agreements don’t stand up in court. Always ask for written contracts, payslips, and signed dismissal letters.
2. Never Sign Under Pressure
If you’re being forced to resign, don’t sign anything. Call a lawyer first. Elena says:
“If they want you out fast, it’s because you have leverage. Use it.”
3. Keep Proof
Screenshots, emails, WhatsApp messages—document everything. It can make or break your case.
4. Don’t Be Afraid of Court
Most people fear suing employers. But in Russia, labor courts often side with workers—especially if you’re organized.
5. The Law Is on Your Side
Russian labor law is surprisingly protective. But only if you stand up for yourself.
Her Famous Cases
Elena has handled dozens of headline-grabbing lawsuits. Some examples:
🔹 Delivery App vs. 120 Couriers
A massive case where a tech company tried to fire couriers without compensation. Elena fought—and won back wages, benefits, and dignity.
🔹 Harassment Case in a Law Firm
She defended a junior associate bullied by a senior partner. The case sparked a #LegalMeToo movement in Russia.
🔹 Factory Workers in the Winter Blackout
She sued after workers were forced to labor in freezing temperatures. The factory was fined and forced to upgrade conditions.
