We provide legal assistance in managing corporate affairs during the formation stage (a company in organization) and offer comprehensive advisory services regarding capital contributions.

Analyzing the Needs of Future Partners and Shareholders

We prepare comprehensive analyses regarding planned business ventures. We present the principles of operating commercial companies to investors and provide assistance in selecting the most optimal legal form for their business. We prepare comparative analyses to help make optimal decisions regarding the choice of company type. Our offer covers all types of partnerships (registered, professional, limited, and limited joint-stock partnerships) and capital companies (limited liability companies, joint-stock companies, and simple joint-stock companies). Our analyses take into account all essential aspects of running a business, including the subject matter, scope, and tax implications of the planned operations.

Drafting and Negotiating the Articles of Association and Statutes

We draft the documents necessary for company formation, primarily the articles of association and company statutes. We verify the content of the drafted documents and their compliance with applicable laws. We advise on making capital contributions, types of in-kind contributions, and financial settlements between partners or shareholders. If necessary, we assist in negotiating the provisions of the company agreement and introduce modifications that accommodate the interests of all owners. We provide assistance in determining the company’s method of representation and drafting the operational rules for its governing bodies. Our services encompass the preparation of all necessary corporate documents, including the bylaws for the management board and the supervisory board.

Legal Support for a Company in Organization

We provide comprehensive legal assistance at the formation stage of a capital company (a “company in organization”). We draft the documents required to appoint the management board or a company proxy and help regulate the legal relationships between the company and individuals acting on its behalf. We ensure ongoing legal support for the company in organization, which includes drafting and negotiating contracts, providing legal opinions on documents, and representing the company before courts and other public administration bodies. We represent debtors and creditors in matters related to the liabilities of companies in organization, including proceedings concerning the liability of a partner or shareholder arising from their failure to make a capital contribution.

Registration in the National Court Register (KRS)

We represent companies in proceedings before registry courts. We prepare applications to the National Court Register (KRS) and assist in compiling the necessary documents, including consents of corporate body members and criminal record clearances. We handle correspondence with courts and file appeals against decisions issued to the detriment of the entities we represent. We also represent corporate body members or injured parties in cases concerning the submission of false data to the KRS or the failure to submit data subject to mandatory registration.

Cooperation with Notaries

We cooperate with notaries to conduct company matters swiftly and efficiently. We draft minutes of meetings and draft resolutions necessary for the effective registration of the company in the KRS. We prepare the necessary analyses and legal opinions to support the process of undertaking actions in the form of a notarial deed. We advise on which actions of the company’s governing bodies require the form of a notarial deed and which only require a notarized signature.

Executing Agreements via Online Systems

We provide assistance in executing the company’s articles of association via the IT system (online registration). We outline the benefits and limitations of the online company formation process. We advise on how to properly fill out the necessary forms and how to sign them with the appropriate electronic signature.
