Varsovie

En 1991, nous avons ouvert un bureau à Varsovie, devenant ainsi l’un des premiers cabinets juridiques internationaux à opérer en Pologne sous le nouveau régime. Au cours des trois dernières décennies, nous avons conseillé nos clients sur de nombreux projets d’envergure, y compris sur certaines des plus grandes opérations de fusion-acquisition, d’infrastructure et de financement sur le marché polonais, ainsi que sur d’importants investissements à l’étranger réalisés par des acteurs polonais majeurs.

Notre valeur ajoutée

Nous combinons une expérience internationale avec une connaissance approfondie du marché local. La plupart de nos clients sont des grandes entreprises polonaises, des institutions financières, ainsi que des promoteurs immobiliers et des leaders dans les secteurs du gaz, de la pétrochimie, du commerce, du transport et de l’industrie lourde. Nous assistons également les investisseurs étrangers dans leurs investissements sur le marché polonais.

Nous sommes un « one-stop-shop » lorsqu’il s’agit de transactions majeures, capable de fournir des conseils juridiques et commerciaux complets à tous les stades du processus d’investissement. Nous fournissons des conseils sur les fusions-acquisitions transfrontalières et locales, les opérations de capital-investissement et les LBO, ainsi que sur tous les types de transactions immobilières et financières.

Nous offrons également une assistance sur mesure à tous les stades des projets d’infrastructure et d’énergie, y compris les projets « greenfield » – à commencer par l’octroi des licences, en passant par l’assistance aux stades de l’EPC et de la mise en service, jusqu’à la gestion des réclamations potentielles.
