Three Decades of Legal Expertise and Economic Insight
Since its foundation in 1992, DT Legal has established itself as one of Poland’s top business law firms. With more than 60 specialized lawyers and offices in Poland’s key economic hubs – including Warsaw, Kraków, Poznań, Wrocław, and Gdynia – the firm offers comprehensive legal services of the highest quality. Local partnerships in cities like Kielce and Bydgoszcz further enhance responsiveness and regional expertise, giving clients an edge in navigating Poland’s legal and business environment.
Managing Partner Zbigniew Drzewiecki emphasizes the importance of economic context for successful legal guidance. A study by the German Poland Institute confirms that companies entering the Polish market see success rates increase by up to 40% when supported by local legal counsel.
DT Legal is also linguistically diverse, offering services in Polish, German, English, French, and Ukrainian. This ensures clear communication and seamless cross-border coordination – an essential factor for international business operations.
Senior Partner Andrzej Tomaszek puts it succinctly: “Not every law firm combines legal precision with the cultural sensitivity that international clients expect.” This statement reflects DT Legal’s core philosophy – a combination of expertise, experience, and empathy.
Tailored Legal Strategies, Not Standard Packages
DT Legal does not view itself as a traditional law firm, but rather as a strategic partner for companies seeking legal solutions aligned with business goals. The firm works across disciplines, uses agile methods, and applies a sector-specific approach – serving both international corporations and ambitious mid-sized companies.
From industry and trade to media, IT, and financial services, DT Legal creates custom legal strategies that support each client’s business model. There are no standard contracts or generic advice – every case is thoroughly analyzed to deliver practical, legally sound, and economically efficient solutions.
One clear example is the „Ukrainian Desk“, a dedicated team that supports clients with business activities in Ukraine. Especially in politically unstable regions, legal stability is crucial. The team combines legal knowledge with an understanding of geopolitical and market realities – a key advantage for German-speaking companies with an Eastern European focus.
DT Legal also uses Legal Design Thinking to make legal content easier to understand. By using visuals, simplified language, and clear structure, the firm improves client communication. Research from the University of St. Gallen shows that this increases client satisfaction and enables faster, more informed decision-making. Legal advice becomes not only accessible but actionable.
Strong Personalities: Andrzej Tomaszek as a Symbol of Values and Vision
DT Legal owes its success not only to its legal expertise, but also to its people. Founders Zbigniew Drzewiecki and Andrzej Tomaszek have shaped the firm’s development for decades. Tomaszek plays a particularly important role – as Senior Partner, co-founder, and mentor, he bridges generations, cultures, and legal traditions.
He summarizes his philosophy clearly: “We don’t want to be the biggest law firm – we want to be the most trusted.” This belief defines the way DT Legal handles cases: structured, solution-oriented, and always at eye level with the client.
New partners like Camiel van der Meij bring international perspectives from countries such as the Netherlands and the UK, further enriching the firm’s capabilities. Combined with Tomaszek’s deep-rooted experience, this results in a modern law firm built on a strong foundation of trust and competence.
Internally, DT Legal embraces innovation and learning: the firm promotes flat hierarchies, continuous professional development, and agile legal project work. Interdisciplinary teams – often including business and tech experts – are the norm. This allows DT Legal to respond to the complexity of today’s legal challenges with speed and depth.
This commitment to excellence has earned the firm repeated recognition as “Law Firm of the Year – Poland”, along with top rankings in Chambers Europe and Legal 500. These accolades reflect not only legal quality but also DT Legal’s client-centered approach and consistent performance.
More Than Legal Counsel: Reliability for Business Growth
In a world of growing regulatory complexity and economic uncertainty, companies need more than legal expertise – they need clarity, foresight, and reliability. DT Legal meets these needs through a wide range of services tailored to the realities of growth-oriented businesses.
A study by the Institute for SME Research (IfM Bonn) found that medium-sized companies increase their international success rate by up to 50% when working with professional legal advisors. DT Legal delivers this kind of strategic legal support, with services including:
-
Contract review and drafting
-
Company formation and restructuring
-
Labor law advisory
-
Out-of-court conflict resolution and mediation
Importantly, DT Legal’s work doesn’t stop with signing the contract – that’s where it begins. The firm supports its clients through every phase of business, identifying risks early and building legal frameworks that enable long-term success. Whether it’s compliance, data protection, supply chain regulations, or ESG standards – DT Legal integrates legal strategy into broader business planning.
Ultimately, it’s about more than law – it’s about enabling companies to grow securely, responsibly, and sustainably. That’s what DT Legal stands for.
