The RKKW experts achieved a double settlement in two complex legal proceedings even before the start of the hearings.
Both court disputes concerned the same construction contract implemented in the FIDIC formula, concluded as a result of a tender procedure with a public contracting authority and subcontracts, and involved the same entities, appearing in the pending disputes in different configurations.
The lawyers of RKKW represented the contractor – one of the largest energy companies in Poland – which was the plaintiff in the first case, and in the second case it acted as the defendant.
Importantly, the court proceedings were conducted by two separate district courts in two different appeals.
Thanks to the commitment of our experts, the RKKW client obtained a 100% favourable ruling without the need for long and costly court proceedings and received a full refund of the filing fee. The lawyers of RKKW structured the terms of the settlement in such a way that the client did not have to satisfy the claims of the next subcontractor, but the general contractor did.
The client was represented in the proceedings and during the negotiation and conclusion of the settlement by:
Witold Sławiński, LL.M. – Partner, attorney at law
Adriana Gostępska – Senior Associate, attorney at law
with the support of Krzysztof Wróbel – Senior Partner, attorney at law, LL.M.
