I believe that if "how to resolve my disputes efficiently and fast" is the question, arbitration is the answer. I work hard to make arbitration better and more popular.
I am a Polish-based dispute resolution lawyer with vast experience in both domestic and international arbitration and litigation. I serve as counsel, assistant to arbitrators, secretary to arbitral tribunals and arbitrator in numerous proceedings, both in Poland and abroad.
I have an international background (LL.M. in Vienna and Hong Kong) and an academic one too - I have just defended my Ph.D. on arbitration at the Jagiellonian University of Kraków. For 10 years I have been coaching the Jagiellonian University's team in Willem C. Vis Moot and therefore I am fortunate enough to constantly work with brilliant future dispute resolution lawyers.
