Jurismus Polska Congress

The first Jurismus Polska Congress took place in Ustroń, 3-5th October 2008. We were 26 Polish lawyers in total. We met in a SPA hotel, which made our stay even more attractive.

We started on Friday afternoon. First our colleagues Krzysztof Bąk and Piotr Ładoń (Nowakowski i Wspólnicy, Warszawa) gave a presentation on Polish competition law. The subject was that interesting, that we had a discussion on this matter. Next, Błażej Sarzalski (Ślązak, Zapiór i Partnerzy, Katowice) initiated a new form of networking, as he “forced” each of us to give a short talk on one of the subject matters we determined a moment earlier. This way the information about us were not limited to the law firm and the specialization.

Following, we spent the evening in Czarcie Kopyto (Devil’s hoof), where the tables were weighted down with the number of Polish delicacies and we were entertained by two lovely highlanders. We also found out who of us is the best in blowing the mountain horn.


Saturday morning we started with General Assembly. We watched a speech by the President of Eurojuris PolskaAdam Krause (Nowakowski i Wspólnicy, Warszawa). We were given a new task – drafting the general terms and conditions of providing services by EJP. We have chosen our National RepresentativeMarta Miszczuk (Nowakowski i Wspólnicy, Warszawa) was reelected.
Next, we had the opportunity to learn about business and social etiquette from Mr. Adam Jarczyński from Polish PR Agency, including clothing, behaviour in the office, protocol, as well as behaviour at the table, which we could test in practice immediately after the seminar.
The evening started with a dinner at the hotel, followed by disco with karaoke. Now we know, who sings the best and who – just loudly ;-)

We all want to express our acknowledgement and thanks to Sławomir Derek (Ślązak, Zapiór i Partnerzy, Katowice), who organized and watched over the congress. It’s a pity that you couldn’t make it. Next year we plan to make our Jurismus congress even more accessible, as it will probably take place in Gdańsk. We hope to meet you all there!
