B2RLaw is Poland's law firm, formed through the merger of esteemed law firms, JSLegal
Jankowski, Stroiński i Partnerzy and Zięba & Partners.

We have extensive experience acting in specialized and complex deals and disputes. With an emphasis on client service, we harness knowledge, technology and innovation to improve efficiency and deliver value. Working together as a team is paramount to how we operate, and we firmly believe in working with our clients towards common business goals.

MEET THE TEAM

We don’t just go beyond law, we go well beyond it, and we live by three core principles:

01.

Breaking Boundaries

We see ourselves as cutting edge legal advisors and pioneers on the Polish and international legal market. We prefer not to follow, but to lead by example.

02.

Transforming 2gether

The world around us is changing rapidly. We too aim to transition in line with those changes so that you can be sure to have an advisor that is not just keeping up with transformation, but is ahead of it. We do this as an agile unit, collaborating as a diverse team, and with our clients in a seamless relationship.

03.

Law Redefined

Law, by its nature, has historical roots. We challenge the law, the way it's practiced and applied with one clear goal – finding the best possible solution. The desire to provide outstanding service underpins everything that we do, and we do it with huge enthusiasm that inspires.

International

With Poland being the beating heart of the CEE region, we operate not only locally but across the region from our offices in Poland, working closely with trusted local teams.

B2RLaw is home to a number of foreign qualified lawyers, for the sole reason of building bridges between Poland, the CEE region, and the wider global market. We assist Polish companies in becoming international companies. On the other hand, we assist international companies and funds to operate and invest in Poland and the wider CEE region.

Many of our Polish lawyers have either practiced, or been educated, abroad at institutions such as Harvard University, Oxford University and Imperial College, London. We speak a host of different languages.

As an independent firm we have forged a unique network of international relations, with leading foreign and international law firms, as well as with intermediaries and consultants such as brokers and investment banks. In what is a people business, these relations add value, and through the right connections and introductions, our clients have been able to leverage these relationships to grow their businesses globally.

Diversity & Inclusion

Diversity and inclusion are integral to both our internal and external culture. The legal business is a business made of people, and based on relationships. Diverse relationships lay at the heart of our firm. We are open and transparent about our numbers, our targets and the initiatives we take to promote diversity and inclusion. B2R’s senior lawyers (partners and counsels) is 42% female exhibiting large strides taken to reach its target and noting that 57% of B2R’s (next generation partners) associates are female.

Pro bono & the Community

Social responsibility is not just a marketing catchphrase for B2R, but a mission statement that reflects our core values. Though the primary goal of our lawyers is to dedicate themselves to B2R’s business clients, we strongly encourage them to also engage in pro bono work. At B2R we believe that it is our obligation to give back to the community as well as support those that are less fortunate or oppressed. B2R takes great pride whenever its lawyers are recognized for pro bono work, most recently by the Polish Ombudsman.
