Drafting and Negotiating Shareholders’ or Stockholders’ Agreements
Cooperation between shareholders or stockholders requires clear and precise arrangements. We draft agreements regulating mutual rights and obligations, including mechanisms preventing potential conflicts, rules for exit from investments, and distribution of profits.
Drafting Holding Agreements and Cooperation Agreements for Capital Groups
Holding structures and capital groups require appropriate regulation of relations between subsidiaries and parent companies. We prepare holding and cooperation agreements that ensure transparency of management and protection of the interests of all entities within the group.
Shareholder Disputes
Conflicts between shareholders can paralyze a company’s operations. We represent clients in negotiations and court proceedings concerning property rights, company management, or the exit of a shareholder from the company.

Thanks to our experience and commitment, we help companies effectively minimize legal risks and achieve their business goals within a stable and secure legal environment.
Legal Services for Limited Partnerships
Legal services for limited partnerships go far beyond one-time registration in the National Court Register or the preparation of a basic agreement. Each stage of operating a limited partnership – from its formation, through day-to-day business operations, to possible liquidation or transformation – involves specific legal obligations, the neglect of which can lead to serious financial and organizational consequences. This is why it is so important to have a lawyer involved, someone who not only knows the law but also understands the practical dynamics of how limited partnerships operate.
A lawyer can relieve partners of many complex obligations – from drafting and negotiating the partnership agreement, through preparing resolutions and minutes of meetings, to representing the company before courts or administrative authorities. Seemingly simple activities, such as changing a partner or updating data in the register, can – without proper preparation – result in the court refusing an entry or in unintended tax consequences. A lawyer can anticipate risks in advance, ensure that documents comply with current regulations, and suggest the most advantageous solutions – both legally and commercially.
In the context of limited partnerships, issues such as partners’ liability, settlements, succession, or transformations are particularly important. The support of an experienced lawyer makes it possible to go through these processes smoothly, without unnecessary complications and without the risk of losing control over the company’s legal situation. It also means real savings of time and money – not only by avoiding costly mistakes but also thanks to the efficient handling of all required procedures. By opting for ongoing legal services, partners gain not only the assurance of compliance with the law but also access to practical knowledge that allows them to make sound decisions in a dynamic business environment.
