- We work on a regular basis with Patrycja Kurowska, Kuba Kościuch, and the partner, Igor Bakowski. Both Patrycja and Kuba provide excellent support, have a very good legal background and knowledge, and partner with our business to win projects, negotiate difficult commercial agreements, and navigate us through disputes. Igor provides excellent advice on all aspects and becomes involved in more complex contractual situations.

Dedicated lawyers with different seniority support our local business in commercial and construction law, as well as disputes and litigations. The Bakowski team responds very quickly to requests, understands our business very well, and provides excellent support.
