largest law firms in Slovakia, in terms of topics, people and innovations. It
required a great deal of humanity and trust. We are very proud to be a member

services they are used to with us in a language they will understand. Therefore,
it is a great honour to welcome Juraj to my side as a partner at Poláček &
Partners law firm. He has been in the law firm since 2016 and during that time
he has done a lot of good work and has shown that he lives by our values from the
first moment. He is an excellent lawyer, I trust him not only professionally,
but also personally. Clients turn to him with great confidence, and therefore I
am very proud that I will be able to share with him the responsible operation
of the law firm, but also listen to his opinion when solving many
problems," said Pavol Poláček, founder and partner of Poláček &
Partners .

Pavol, I have become convinced that building a law firm not only on expertise,
but also on values and humanity is the right way. This is evidenced by many
satisfied clients who appreciate this approach, as well as by a constantly
expanding team of exceptional people for whom these pillars are the common
ground in the practice of law. I am grateful for Pavol's trust, and I also
greatly appreciate the support of my colleagues. I therefore gladly and humbly
accepted this challenge," said Juraj Ondrejka, a new partner of the law
