About

Provided by Wardyński & Partners

We conduct proceedings before state courts, arbitration courts, the Supreme Court of Poland, the Constitutional Tribunal, state and local administrative authorities, administrative courts and the Supreme Administrative Court.

Conducting judicial, arbitration and administrative proceedings is one of the key practice areas of Wardyński & Partners. For years we have cooperated with renowned law firms all over the world, enabling us to lead and coordinate legal representation both in Poland and abroad.

Our experience in judicial, arbitration and administrative proceedings covers all fields of law and all industry sectors served by the firm.

We assist the client in objectively assessing the legal situation based on its stance in the litigation. We examine the rationale for conducting mediation and settlement negotiations and together with the client establish an action plan and schedule for the case.In selecting the method for proceeding, we always take into account the client’s business interests. And when analysing the dispute, we try to identify actions that could help avoid similar problems arising in the future.

Many of the cases we handle involve socially sensitive issues which are important for the broader functioning of the rule of law. We handle pro bono litigation in cooperation with the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights as part of its Strategic Litigation Programme. The pro bono programme also covers ongoing clients of the firm.
