We provide comprehensive legal services in the preparation, review and negotiation of agreements relating to real estate transactions and broadly understood contractual (obligational) relationships.

Our objective is to ensure the legal security of each transaction and to effectively mitigate risks at every stage thereof — from initial structuring, through negotiations, to completion.

Preliminary Sale Agreements

We specialise in the drafting and review of preliminary agreements for the sale of real estate, both in standard written form and in the form of notarial deeds.

We ensure that our clients’ interests are properly safeguarded by precisely defining:

• the conditions for the conclusion of the final (definitive) agreement,
• timelines and performance mechanisms,
• arrangements concerning deposits (earnest money) or advance payments,
• liability of the parties in the event of non-performance.

Contractual Agreements (Lease and Tenancy)

We provide legal support in relation to:

• residential lease agreements (including occasional and institutional lease arrangements),
• commercial lease agreements (offices, retail and service premises),
• lease agreements (dzierżawa), including those concerning agricultural land.

We place particular emphasis on provisions relating to:

• rent and indexation mechanisms,
• capital expenditures and improvements,
• liability for the technical condition of the property,
• termination and exit arrangements.

Specialised Lease Agreements

We have extensive experience in drafting agreements concerning:

• lease of land for advertising structures (including advertising masts),
• lease of land for telecommunications infrastructure (including towers and base stations),
• long-term investment-related lease arrangements.

Such agreements take into account legal, technical and administrative aspects, while ensuring appropriate financial safeguards for property owners.

Development Agreements and Assignments

We provide comprehensive advice in relation to:

• the review and negotiation of development (off-plan) agreements,
• assessment of risks associated with development projects,
• drafting and review of assignment agreements concerning rights under development agreements,
• assignments arising from preliminary development agreements.

We verify the compliance of documentation with applicable law and the client’s interests, including provisions relating to:

• payment schedules,

• statutory warranty (defects liability).

Real Property Law Agreements

We advise on and structure legal arrangements concerning:

• transfer of ownership of real estate (including by way of exchange),
• use and allocation of property, including exclusive use arrangements between co-owners (quoad usum),
• establishment of easements (including rights of way and passage),
• establishment of necessary access (right of way),
• personal easements, in particular residential easements (right of habitation),
• amendment and termination of easements.

We ensure proper structuring of rights and obligations and consistency with land and mortgage registers.
