This man is quite easy, with a touch of grace, able to instill in the thoughts of the people around him the confidence that he is a descendant of one of the ancient genera. And he succeeds quite simply. Indeed, one only has to look at him, his appearance, his manner of communicating with his interlocutor, his behavior and aristocracy, as any doubts immediately fade into the background.
His name is known to almost everyone, but in most cases it is pronounced for a certain, completely ambiguous reason. Despite the fact that this is an interesting, even curious person, unfortunately, not so much is known about her. This person does not like to give interviews and share childhood memories. Let’s try to slightly open the veil of secrecy. So, Reznik Henry is one of the best lawyers of our time in Russia.
The childhood of the future genius
Little Henry for the first time atI saw this world on May 11, 1938 in one of the most beautiful cities in Russia - Leningrad. His childhood was no different from the childhood of his peers. He played and fought along with other children (by the way, more often victory turned out to be on the side of our hero), built castles from pebbles and launched home-made kites.
At the age of ten, he learned that he was Jewish by nationality. But this did not bother him at all, but even pleased him. Future lawyer Reznik Henry from childhood was confident that he would become a famous person. Where did this confidence come from in him, he could not understand after more than a dozen years, when he was already quite well-known and, let alone hide, well-founded.
Mom and Dad Resnickers
Little Henry's mom was a pianist. It was through her family tree that the reunion of two genera happened: the Schneersons and the Rafalovichs. Thanks to his mother, Reznik Henry became a descendant of these clans: on the one hand, Rafalovich, who was the chief rabbi of the Kremenchug synagogue, on the other, Schneerson, who was a Lubavitcher rabbi.
Little Henry's dad came from a Jewish family whose incomes were very small. They lived near Kremenchug, in the town of Znamenka. Dad had a very clean, beautiful voice. Unfortunately, due to some defect, he did not finish his studies at the conservatory at the vocal faculty. Therefore, he had to move to another faculty. The document that my father received was a diploma of the Moscow Conservatory.
The family was lucky to leave Leningrad shortly before the start of the terrible blockade. Their life continued in Saratov. It was in this city that Mark Reznik (papa) headed the local conservatory.
Did not extend the dynasty of musicians
Parents knowingly instilled in their son a love of classical music. Today, lawyer Reznik Henry is a regular visitor to the P. Tchaikovsky Concert Hall and the Moscow Conservatory. And in his house there is a rich jazz and classical music library. But Henry Markovich decided not to follow in the footsteps of his parents and did not become a musician. And this, despite the fact that nature endowed him with a wonderful deposit - an absolute ear.
Now he is sure that at first the war prevented him from prolonging the musical dynasty. He still remembers how they bombed Saratov, where they moved, how he traveled with his mother to military units with concert brigades. But after the war ended, something else prevented. Reznik Henry Markovich, whose photo can often be seen on the pages of glossy publications, once asked his mother why he was not taught music when he was a little older. Mom told him that Henry was too restless as a child. He was hardly seated at the instrument.And the situation was not very successful: in two rooms of the communal apartment, where he spent his childhood, until the end of the forties lived seven more relatives (except for Henry himself and his parents) - grandmother, aunt, father and brother, father with two children. And a little later the boy was visited by "jumping".
His sporting achievements
From a very young age, Reznik Henry actively participated in many sports competitions. At the age of fifteen, he became the champion of the Russian Federation in high jump (then Henry was a member of the team of younger boys). And a year later, Reznik played for the adult national teams of his hometown in volleyball and basketball. Two years later, he was one of the founders of the volleyball team in Tashkent, in addition, was its head. Also at the same time, Reznik became the absolute champion in high jump in Kazakhstan. And in the fifties of the last century, the future Soviet lawyer Reznik Henry Markovich was already a member of the volleyball and basketball team.
From Moscow to Tashkent
Along with the craving for sports in Reznik, interest in journalism woke up. But immediately after receiving a school certificate in 1956, he was unable to conquer the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University due to the fact that Henry did not get only one point in the entrance exams. And for one year he becomes a student at the Institute of Physical Education, where in parallel, with the goal of safety, he passed exams. Reznik's lawyer Henry Markovich, whose biography is not as famous as his other colleagues, was ambitious enough in those years. That is why it seemed to him then that his volleyball career did not work out as he imagined.
Reznik was taken to the team of MAI masters. It seems to be luck, but Henry Markovich was in stock, and he was almost not allowed to enter the site. He was sure that they would overwrite him, they would not allow him to show himself, because he jumped high enough and hit the ball with a good swing.
A year later, in 1957, Reznik, in the company of the same ambitious peers, decided to leave the capital and create his own strong team in Tashkent. But again, it is not possible for the young man to combine study and sport, because the specialization of the journalist there existed exclusively for representatives of Uzbek nationality. Resnick makes an important decision for himself to enter law school.
Contrary to all genes
A diploma in law from the Kazakh State University was awarded to Reznik in 1962. At this time, he was quite seriously engaged in jurisprudence, and his diploma work “On Legal Presumptions” was highly appreciated at the all-Union student competition and a recommendation for admission to graduate school.
Resnick Henry decided to postpone the move to Moscow for a while, because his sports career was developing perfectly. He begins to work in the investigation department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kazakhstan. The new minister helped him with this, who turned out to be a big fan of volleyball. Now Reznik quite successfully works as an investigator, and in parallel with this, the team of volleyball players, whose captain he was elected, takes prizes in the 2nd group of the championship of the Soviet Union.
These years of life Reznik always regarded as a great luck. After all, he was immediately enrolled in the republican investigative department, where the most qualified and experienced investigators worked. And Henry was in this team exclusively thanks to volleyball. He now worked side by side with the aces of the investigation and tried to learn everything from them as quickly as possible. So, in just a few years, Reznik walked up the ranks from an ordinary investigator to an investigator on particularly important matters.
War on the Void
Despite the fact that lawyer Reznik Henry Markovich, whose photo is presented in the article, has completely taken place in his profession, he is the head of the anti-defamation activities carried out by the Russian Jewish Congress.There is a firm conviction in him that anti-Semitism as a kind of public background can be seen in different countries. It has historically developed that Jews are considered not so ordinary nationality as other nations. They were, as it were, labeled, they are not always understood and accepted. Until now, people have some incomprehensible need to divide into "ours" and "not ours."
As for Russia, here anti-Semitism has blossomed a magnificent, bright flower. Henry Markovich never believed that the pogroms of the Jews, as has always been argued, no one provoked. If you look at history, then this happened both under Joseph Stalin and during the reign of the king. Reznik is convinced that now there is no state anti-Semitism, which is a kind of policy, expressed in things known to most people: from restricting citizens in their rights and opportunities to their physical elimination.
Career steps
The first step in the career ladder of Reznik was the work of an investigator at the Investigative Department in Alma-Ata. A little later, he happened to study the causes and develop the necessary measures to prevent crime in the USSR. 1982 brought him the position of head of the laboratory at the institute, where he underwent further training for justice workers. Henry Markovich is the author of about two hundred publications. These materials provide invaluable assistance to people. And some of his articles were marked as the best articles of the year.
For three years (from 1982 to 1985), Reznik headed the research laboratory at the All-Union Institute for the Improvement of Justice Workers. Reznik lawyer Henry Markovich can provide almost any necessary assistance, whose contacts can be found by contacting the Reznik, Gagarin & Partners Law Office, one of whose offices is located at 3. Shmitovsky proezd, Russia, 123100, Moscow, Russia. Phones : (495) 605-2709 / 7588, (499) 255-0080. Fax: (499) 256-7252, t./fax: (499) 271-1279. On the basis of the institute, he conducted research on the state of justice in the Soviet Union and the legal attitudes of judges. During this period of time he published a large number of articles on criminological, criminal procedure and criminal law science.
Proud title
In the mid-eighties, Reznik became a lawyer at the Moscow City College of Advocates (MGCA). And the reason for his transition was quite weighty: just at that time the Moscow College was “smashed”. Lawyers Charged with Incitement to giving bribes as well as taking possession of the client’s money through ordinary fraud. Every day the number of more and more criminal cases increased. This senseless and brutal reprisal against lawyers was later called “karatevschina,” because the name and surname of the investigator conducting this case and who was at the head of the investigation team specially created for this work was Vladimir Karataev.
In the fall of 2002, Henry Reznik became chairman of the Law Chamber in Moscow. Head of the Bar Department at the Law University. His colleagues speak with admiration of his knowledge of legal laws, his ability and ability to win the most complex cases. At different times, Reznik's clients were Natalya Gevorkyan, Boris Berezovsky, Valeria Novodvorskaya, Boris Yeltsin and many other famous people who are written about in the front pages of print media.
Homemade Henry Reznik
And only at home does luxury allow itself to be the most ordinary husband, dad and grandfather, the famous lawyer Reznik Henry Markovich. His son, Andrei, is already about ten years old - the rector of the church of St. Seraphim of Sarov.
Larisa Yulianovna, Reznik's wife, has always been in his area of interest (she is also a lawyer). The spouses grow up four granddaughters and one grandson.
