Legal support in Poland
Services
Working with Polish customers, developers or vendors? We help with the contracts, product rights, data and AI decisions that affect your business in Poland.
Polish legal advice, ready to use
Tell us what you are trying to achieve and what needs a decision. We review the documents and risks, then agree the work: drafting, negotiation or help putting the changes into practice.
Our advice covers Polish law and EU technology regulation applicable in Poland. For a cross-border matter, we define the Polish part of the work at the outset.

Before we start
Can you help an international team?
Yes. We work with international teams on Polish law, contracts with Polish counterparties and technology regulation applicable in Poland. We agree which Polish legal questions need our input.
Can we start with one contract review?
Yes. We can review the agreement, explain the risks and propose wording for negotiation. You can then decide whether you need further support.
Will you join negotiations?
Yes. We can prepare comments and proposed clauses, explain the negotiation priorities and join discussions with the other party.
Do we need a full compliance project?
Not necessarily. We start with the processes and the immediate issue. The scope may be one data processing agreement, an AI policy or a broader review, depending on what your team needs.
What do you need to decide in Poland?
