Client Success: Two court cases resolved, with a total value exceeding half a million PLN.

The proceedings in question concerned claims filed against the law firm’s Client for payment of commission remuneration for developing application documentation under the Smart Growth Program.

The purpose of the cooperation undertaken between the parties was to secure financial resources for the Client to implement the project. Despite signing a co-financing agreement, however, the Client did not receive any financial tranches due to problems with the reimbursement of funds related to real estate acquisition. The dispute concerned whether the contractor could demand commission remuneration in a situation where, first, the Client did not receive the co-financing amounts on which the commission remuneration amount depended, and second, the suspension of payments by PARP was, in the Client’s opinion, caused by improper performance of the contract by the contractor. Ultimately, however, the parties reached an agreement and ended the court disputes, totaling over half a million zloty, by signing settlements. In the negotiation process, the Client was represented by legal counsel Krzysztof Brysiewicz and attorney Katarzyna Sawicka.
