Pinsent Masons has launched operations in Poland with the opening of a Warsaw office, establishing a team of more than 40 lawyers and advisers focused on transactions, real estate, infrastructure, finance and cross-border advisory work across Central and Eastern Europe.
The office will be jointly managed by Bartłomiej Kordeczka and Jakub Marcinkowski, supported by founding partners Maciej Jodkowski, Piotr Staniszewski, Bartosz Nojek and Błażej Zagórski. The team includes lawyers previously associated with firms including Dentons, DLA Piper, CMS and Greenberg Traurig.
The Warsaw office will advise clients on mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, joint ventures, financing and refinancing, infrastructure and construction projects, as well as broader corporate and investment matters.
The firm said the launch reflects the growing importance of Poland and the wider Central and Eastern European region as investment destinations and transaction markets.
Jakub Marcinkowski said Warsaw has become a regional hub for transactions and investment projects requiring both local market expertise and international investor standards.
Pinsent Masons also stated that the Polish operation will be integrated into its wider international platform, with a focus on cross-border collaboration and coordinated client service across jurisdictions.
The firm plans to further expand the Warsaw office in areas including infrastructure, construction, finance and investment-related advisory work.
As part of the launch, Mark Harris, a long-standing partner at Pinsent Masons in the UK specialising in construction law, litigation and arbitration, will relocate to Warsaw to strengthen the office’s infrastructure and construction capabilities.
Pinsent Masons said it intends to apply experience gained on international infrastructure and capital projects, including transport, energy and large-scale urban developments, to support clients operating in Poland and the wider CEE region.
