In 2006 the Warsaw office was opened. In 2009 Beata Matusiewicz-Kulig, attorney at law and Tomasz Targosz, Ph.D., attorney at law joined the partners team, followed two years later by Jan Byrski, Ph.D., attorney at law and Wojciech Kulis, attorney at law. In 2016, Agnieszka Schoen, attorney-at-law, Anna Sokołowska-Ławniczak, PhD, patent attorney, Agnieszka Wachowska, legal advisor, and Rafał Klimek, legal advisor, became our partners.
