Czech lawyers with the whole picture

Since 2010 we have helped individuals and companies, in the Czech Republic and abroad, with complex legal problems. We combine experience from legal practice with an academic background and, where a case calls for it, also represent clients before the Supreme Court, the Supreme Administrative Court and the Constitutional Court.

Our clients include not only individuals and companies but also other law firms, when a matter goes beyond the limits of their specialisation.

Criminal, civil and administrative law meet in one case more often than you would expect.

For the long term

We work with many of our clients for years, not only in individual disputes. We know their business, their financial situation and their long-term goals, so we can spot legal risks early and propose how to reduce them.

In context

One matter can have criminal, property and tax consequences. We assess them together and look for a solution that holds up in every respect.

Grounded in scholarship

Most of our lawyers hold a doctorate. Alongside our practice we teach and publish. We bring academic knowledge together with experience from specific cases and court proceedings.

For clients from abroad

Owning property, running a company or facing proceedings in a country whose language and courts you do not know is hard. We explain Czech law in plain English, deal with Czech courts and authorities for you, and work with you remotely or in person.

Our cases

Precedents we won at the Czech Constitutional Court, Supreme Court and Supreme Administrative Court, and cases reported in the media. Each comes with its decisions, sources and history.
