INTERNATIONAL DESK

Our International Desk provides assistance to foreign clients planning and implementing their business in Poland and beyond. We do not see our role as confined to legal matters; we always strive to understand the business context of the advice we provide. We deliver practical solutions helping to do business in Poland and internationally.
We co-operate with law firms across the globe and work on a regular basis with lawyers in Europe, the US, China, India, South Africa and the Middle East.
Working in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish or Russian should be taken for granted.

Over the years we have developed a special relationship with Italian investors. We advise on contracts made between Poland and Italy and provide advice to Italian companies doing business in Poland. Thanks to a very broad network of contacts with law firms across Italy, we are also able to assist on any matter involving Italian law.

The following lawyers make part of the Italian Desk (all fluent in Italian):

– Adam Morawski
– Bartosz Jankowski
– Barbara Pietrzak

Our team not only provides legal advice, but also prepares bilingual versions of documents, assists in commercial negotiations and provides various secretarial services in Italian.

CHINESE DESK

Our Chinese Desk is focused on helping Chinese companies move around in the Polish reality and on advising Polish and international investors interested in doing business in China. The Director of our Chinese Desk is Shen Bin, Chinese attorney-at-law and patent attorney who works in Beijing and ensures efficient communication with our Chinese clients, as well as accurate advice for our European clients. On the other hand, our Warsaw team, fluent in Chinese, works closely with Shen Bin to ensure that the legal work is done and that it is fully understood by the Client.
