Small and medium enterprises
Negotiations with clients, development of the brand on new markets, problems with effective recovery, structural changes in the company – these are the most frequent reasons for small and medium enterprises to search for legal assistance. I am glad to advise and assist the entrepreneurs throughout the course of their business activity.

How to hire or dismiss employees?
In case of any company the human resources’ needs fluctuate. I am glad to advise on the most suitable form of employment, as well as on the specific stipulations which shall be introduced into the agreement with an employee or a subcontractor in a particular case. I also provide my assistance once the employment relationship needs to be terminated. I take care that such process is carried out in line with legal provisions and that it turns out to be as smooth as possible for both parties.

How to secure your interests in commercial relationships?
Execution of written agreements with customers is not a sufficient way of taking care of your business interests. Introducing deadlines for execution of certain obligations or taking into account non-disclosure stipulations once a trade secret is at stake, may be equally important.
I am glad to assist my clients in particular in:
- preparing commercial agreements with customers
- preparing framework agreements
- preparing non-disclosure agreements (NDA)
- preparing exclusivity agreements
- legal advice on contracts in course and their renegotiations
- preparing documents related to termination of agreements (termination letters, withdrawal statements, terminations by mutual consent)
- representing before courts of law in matters related to execution, performance or termination of agreements
- registering a trade mark

What to do if the contractor is behind on payments?
Problems with unpaid invoices are a common concern of all entrepreneurs. From my experience I know that sometimes the reasons are simple – overlooking of the invoice or some banking hurdles. In such a case, a telephone or email reminder is usually sufficient. However, once the reasons for the lack of payment are more serious, prompt undertaking of necessary measures makes the full recovery of the due sums more probable.
I assist my clients in particular in:
- preparing official reminders and formal requests for payment
- preparing written acknowledgement of debt by the contractor
- preparing requests for settlement
- preparing law suits against Polish contractors
- preparing law suits against foreign contractors
- representing before courts of law
- preparing enforcement motions
- representing in enforcement proceedings
