Two new partners joined SMM Legal in May: Maria Bysiewicz, expert on M&A transactions and investments, and Jędrzej Bujny, PhD, who will manage the Administrative Law department.
Ms. Bysiewicz has advised on a number of major transactions, including the acquisition of a majority stake in one of the leading Polish insurance companies, the take-over of an open pension fund, the sale of a group of companies within the automotive industry, investments by a leading global food industry corporation and various transactions involving the transfer and conversion of enterprises. She has extensive experience in dispute resolution and has represented clients before civil courts, administrative courts and government authorities. Her litigation practice has focused on commercial and civil law disputes (including the protection of personal rights), but she has also defended clients in corporate criminal matters (white collar crimes). Furthermore, she has advised non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) on competition and consumer protection law.
Mr. Jędrzej Bujny holds a doctoral degree in legal sciences and works as an associate professor at the Chair of Administrative Law and Administration Science of the Faculty of Law and Administration at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. Mr. Bujny is a legal advisor with a strong background in advisory to public administration entities, and has extensive experience managing teams advising clients from the public utilities sector, such as water supply, waste management and renewable energy firms. In his academic and expert activity he focuses on local government law, particularly issues related to municipal services and environmental protection, including waste management and energy law, with special emphasis on renewable energy sources.
