For years, our lawyers have been supporting housing cooperatives, both the largest and those covering individual real estate. Our services cover both the daily activities of the cooperative and its bodies as well as the planning and construction process undertaken by housing cooperatives or other investors.
Advocacy and charity activities as well as safe family property succession require the use of appropriate legal instruments. The Polish law is just discovering the wealth of experiences and forms of entrusting property to professional management to realize specific goals – social, charitable, and religious. Family foundations which, patterned after the ordinations of the First Commonwealth of Poland are becoming more and more popular, and emerge as a vehicle for the organization and transfer of property to the next generations. Our team was one of the first in the country to implement advanced formulas for foundations and trusts for domestic and foreign clients wishing to secure the financial stability of families or the continuity of initiated charity projects.
Our team of experienced specialists and authors of publications on intellectual property protection, with particular emphasis on industrial property, specificity of the art market, has been providing the support of our experience to the largest Polish cultural institutions and artists’ associations for years.
Together with the law firm's clients, we made a breakthrough transition from the former regulations to the reality of the GDPR, and then we co-shaped the national and European practice of personal data protection in industries subject to specific regulatory regimes, including in the field of operation of recruitment agencies, in financial markets, and mass fundraising by social organizations.
The firm’s partners and lawyers have over twenty years of experience in servicing commercial companies, funds, as well as simple and complex investment transactions. We accompany our clients both at the stage of preparation and closing of the transaction, as well as in long-term servicing of projects, including representation in complex arbitration or judicial proceedings.
In providing advisory to leading banks, investment funds, credit institutions, payment institutions and projects subject to similar, special regulatory requirements, the lawyers of the law firm have accumulated unique experience in the field of operations of financial institutions in the national, EU, and international regulatory environment.
We collaborate with lawyers and experts specializing in public international law, the human rights system, humanitarian law, and law of armed conflict. We cooperate with domestic, foreign, and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and their associations by providing regulatory and advocacy advice and support in undertaken social campaigns.
We clearly see a deficit of professional legal services for church and religious institutions, both in the field of civil law, labor law, and special regulations of religious law, as well as in the area of canon law, and criminal law. The experience and trust built through many years of cooperation with dioceses, religious orders, clergy, and lay people managing church entities allow us to offer our clients unique forms of support.
