Legal Counsel / Senior Associate / Personal Injury Team / BFP Law Firm
Graduated from the Faculty of Law of the Jagiellonian University in 2012. Passed the national legal counsel trainee examination in the same year. In the years 2013 – 2015 successfully completed the legal counsel apprenticeship in the District Chamber of Legal Counsels in Kraków. In 2016 passed the national legal counsel examination [bar exam].
I graduated from the Frederic Chopin Music Secondary School in Cracow. I have played the violin and the piano since I was 5 years old, so for me the most obvious choice – after graduating from the secondary school – should be a university of music. In fact, it was my initial plan, but… after my final recital I closed my violin case just for a few days to prepare for my secondary school final examinations and it is still closed today, because… I decided to study law. Do not ask me why, because I still do not know 😉 However, it proved to be my best choice ever and I truly enjoy to be a lawyer.
I joined BFP Law Firm in 2012, shortly after my graduation. I remember that since the very beginning I met with interesting legal cases, as well as cross border legal issues and personal injury cases. My first BFP challenge as a personal injury lawyer was handling the civil proceedings in the case concerning very tragic death of a child during labour and delivery. This case made me realize how significant is personal injury and how much people need our professional legal support in this kind of cases. Presently I am providing legal support, including handling civil proceedings, for our numerous Clients, which gives me great satisfaction.
