About

Provided by Wolf Theiss

Following significant growth over the past two years, our Polish team has evolved into a highly proficient group specialising in delivering top-tier advice to both domestic and international clients across various industries. As a result, Wolf Theiss now has one of the largest and most diversified corporate and M&A teams in Poland.

 

We help navigate M&A projects, including public and private transactions, joint ventures, corporate governance, restructurings, and capital markets related matters. In addition to our M&A expertise, our assistance involves establishing business presence in Poland, corporate advisory or housekeeping services.

 

Our clients are both domestic and international, ranging from large to mid-sized companies, private equity, venture capital and start-ups. We work directly with clients or as part of a cross-border international team of M&A professionals. In addition to our core M&A services, we provide advice on M&A-related litigation, merger control, financing, data protection, environmental assessment and intellectual property protection. We are also well-versed in foreign direct investment regulations and specialised ESG matters. Wolf Theiss can provide fully integrated M&A and corporate support across offices in 13 CEE/SEE countries and a central European hub in Brussels. The team's strength, beyond its size, quality of work and business-oriented approach lies in seamless collaboration with other practices within the office and the firm.
