A&O Shearman is a long-established and leading international presence in Poland. The law firm's full-service Warsaw office is well equipped to advise a combination of multinational and Polish entities on a broad spectrum of matters. Its Polish practice forms a crucial part of the firm's Central and Eastern European offering, supported by teams situated in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. On 1st May 2024, Allen & Overy and Shearman & Sterling merged to form A&O Shearman.
The law firm stands out in Poland for its exceptional transactional capabilities. Highly sought after among international lending syndicates and Polish banks, the team also garners praise for its excellent debt capital markets practice. Cross-border M&A deals involving Poland are adeptly handled from Warsaw, and the law firm also boasts one of the strongest competition teams in the jurisdiction. Alongside its impressive transactional strength, the group also offers domestic and overseas clients support in contentious proceedings that are multi-jurisdictional.
