She is distinguished by her analytical approach and ability to translate complex legal issues into practical solutions.

Piotr Wojdak – Counsel

Piotr is a key lawyer within the public procurement practice. Clients repeatedly return to him in subsequent proceedings before the National Appeals Chamber (KIO), and his approach to handling cases attracts even former procedural opponents to WKB. For years, he has consistently built a strong position in the highly strategic defence sector, advising leading manufacturers of defence equipment and technologies. He ensures efficient project organisation and high substantive quality, with his structured and responsible approach strongly supporting the team’s day-to-day work.

Although Anna joined WKB relatively recently, she has already established herself as a recognised expert in criminal law in business. She has a remarkable ability to instil a sense of comfort and trust in clients who are often facing particularly challenging situations. She clearly explains legal strategies and the complexities of criminal procedure, combining leadership qualities with great sensitivity. Thanks to her work and commitment, an increasing number of clients entrust their matters to WKB. She actively shares her knowledge through publications, training and participation in conferences.

We congratulate all those promoted on this important milestone.
