Practice areas:
We advise and guide insurance companies, policyholders and insurance beneficiaries through court proceedings on a daily basis. Such procedures include indemnification procedures and insurance payments as well as collection procedures in regards of claims of insurance companies.
The services are provided for domestic and foreign clients, and we often resolve issues and disputes with an international element, which includes recourse procedures for foreign insurance companies and institutions, or claims of individuals from abroad.
Public and administrative law have distinctive specifics, different from other legal areas (private law). Public law serves the general interest, and private law individual. Public law directs state power and contains special laws that should be followed in every legal issue. The provision of services in this area strongly intertwines the need to understand the regulation of individual sectors, public institutes and special procedures.
We provide constant support in regards of the work of certain public institutions and bodies, including local government units and legal entities with public authorities. We have provided legal advice to ministries, and we also advise companies in their relations with public authorities. Furthermore, the issue of business compliance and relations of entrepreneurs with regulatory agencies also belong to this area.

We provide services to clients regardless of whether it is an issue of a new player on the market and the need to establish a company and resolve all status issues (entries in the court register - addresses, appointment of board members, etc.), drafting of contracts with business associates and clients or a review of existing documents and critical analysis of the same.

Our services include the possibility of daily consulting, drafting legal opinions and the drafting of contracts that will regulate your relationships with clients and business associates.
Any financing and other measures and benefits in regards of entrepreneurs requires awareness of state aid law. Our services include analysis of compliance with state aid rules and consultation in the preparation of programs and projects or in their implementation.
