FAQ

As a Polish advocate, I act as your direct representative in the country, minimizing the need for you to travel to Poland in person. I handle key formalities with Polish courts, tax offices, notaries, or developers based on the power of attorney granted by you. With constant contact in Polish or English, you stay up to date with the progress of your case while remaining in Sweden.

Yes, transparency regarding costs is a priority for me throughout the case. Before taking any action, I carefully analyze your situation and provide a clear cost estimate. You will know in advance the amount of my fee as well as any expected court or administrative fees.

The first contact can take place in whichever way is most convenient for you – via email, the contact form on the website, or during a short online call. This meeting or exchange of messages is only meant for an initial discussion of your issue and is non-binding. Only after I present a plan of action and it’s approved do we start formal cooperation.

Mediation is a process that’s generally much faster, cheaper, and lets you keep full control over the final agreement. Unlike in court, where a judge hands down the decision, here the parties themselves work out a mutually acceptable solution. This helps avoid years of stress and protects important personal and business relationships.

For the initial analysis, any agreements, arrangements, and key correspondence with the other party will be useful. Financial documents, demands of payment,, or confirmations of disputed obligations may also come in handy. Based on these materials, I will prepare a reliable assessment of your legal prospects and risks.

A mediation settlement approved by a Polish court can also be effective abroad. In many cases, European Union law allows it to be efficiently enforced in Sweden as well. This means that an agreement made in Poland can actually protect a client on both sides of the Baltic.

As a citizen of a country belonging to the EEA, you can buy an apartment or house in Poland – including in the border zone – without needing to get a permit. However, there may be some restrictions and paperwork if you want to buy agricultural or forest land. In such cases, I help you go through the procedures correctly and analyze any potential planning risks.

A legal due diligence is a detailed check of the legal status of a house, apartment, or plot of land before making a transaction. I look into the records in Polish land and mortgage registers, check for any mortgage liabilities, and claims from third parties. This helps minimize the risk of purchasing a property affected by legal defects or third-party claims.

In many cases, we can safely carry out the entire sales transaction remotely based on the power of attorney you’ve granted me. I prepare a secure preliminary agreement, represent you at the notary, and ensure proper financial settlement. This allows for the smooth transfer of the sale proceeds directly to your specified bank account.

The duration of inheritance proceedings mainly depends on whether the heirs agree on how to divide the estate. If all heirs agree, the matter may be completed before a notary in a single appointment. But if the case has to go to a Polish court, the process can take anywhere from a few months to even several years.

Under current Polish law, heirs generally benefit from limited liability for inherited debts, meaning that their liability does not normally exceed the value of the assets they inherit. However, the applicable rules may depend on the date of the deceased’s death, which can be important in older cases.I help with a detailed analysis of the legal situation to effectively safeguard your personal assets from creditors.

You need to provide the Polish court or notary with, among other things, a Swedish copy of the death certificate and documents confirming the degree of kinship. Thanks to EU regulations, many standard civil status documents from Sweden no longer require an Apostille. I help my clients correctly gather and verify these official papers.

As a private individual, you can effectively assert your rights and financial claims against Polish entities. I review the contracts, check the legal and financial status of the other party, and develop a legal strategy tailored to your situation. I represent you in settlement negotiations, and if needed, before the Polish courts.

I work as a trusted and professional Polish advocate for Swedish advisors, accounting firms, and other law firms. I provide them with precise analyses of Polish regulations, check documents in national registers, and draft legal opinions in English. This allows Swedish professionals to handle their clients’ cases in Poland safely and thoroughly.

Bringing a case to court in Poland involves having to pay a court fee, which usually depends on the value of the dispute. Before deciding to go to court, I always prepare a detailed analysis for you whether litigation is justified from a legal and financial perspective. I help assess the financial risk and the chances of recovering legal costs from the other party.
