Why choose a specialist in Poland
Specialist representation for technology, internet, privacy and AI disputes
Technology, Internet, Privacy & AI lawyers in Poland advise clients on the full range of digital legal issues, from contractual disputes over software and online services to privacy and data protection challenges. Poland follows a continental civil-law system, which means these matters are governed primarily by codified statutes such as the Civil Code and the Commercial Companies Code, with EU law taking precedence where applicable. Because the ordinary courts are organised in three tiers and strict limitation periods apply, early advice from a lawyer who understands Polish procedure is essential. Our matching service connects you with a qualified adwokat or radca prawny who can assess your position, prepare the necessary pleadings, and represent you before district, regional, appellate or administrative courts as required. You pay nothing to be matched.
The legal environment in Poland
How technology, internet, privacy and AI matters are handled in Poland
In Poland, technology and internet disputes fall within the ordinary courts, which apply codified civil and commercial rules. Both adwokat and radca prawny may represent clients before all courts, including the Supreme Court and administrative courts. The costs and limitation periods below are based on official Polish legal sources.
Continental civil-law framework
Poland follows the continental civil-law model, relying on codified statutes rather than judicial precedent. Technology, internet, privacy and AI contracts are therefore interpreted primarily under the Civil Code and the Commercial Companies Code. EU law applies directly and takes precedence over conflicting national legislation, which is particularly relevant for cross-border digital services.
Two legal professions with full court access
Since 1 July 2015, the adwokat (advocate) and the radca prawny (attorney-at-law/legal adviser) have identical rights of audience before all courts. Both must complete a Polish Master’s degree in law, a three-year professional training and a professional examination, and are compulsory members of their respective professional self-government.
Ordinary and administrative court structure
Ordinary courts are organised in three tiers: district courts, regional courts and appellate courts, with the Supreme Court exercising cassation jurisdiction. Administrative cases, such as challenges to decisions on data processing, are heard by voivodeship administrative courts and the Supreme Administrative Court.
Strict limitation periods apply
Polish law imposes specific limitation periods. General contractual claims expire after six years, claims arising from business activity after three years, and tort claims after three years from the date the injured party learned of the damage and the person liable, subject to a maximum of ten years from the event.
Transparent rules on costs and legal aid
Court fees in civil cases are generally a proportional fee of 5% of the amount in dispute, subject to statutory minimum and maximum amounts. Lawyers’ fees are freely agreed, but the recoverable amount in litigation is capped by statutory rates. Free legal aid and court-appointed lawyers are available for persons of limited means.

Common risks in technology and internet disputes
Without local expertise, digital legal problems can escalate
Polish procedural rules and limitation periods can catch out even experienced businesses.
Missed limitation deadlines
Polish law imposes strict time limits: six years for general contractual claims, three for business claims, and 21 days for employment dismissal claims. Missing a deadline can extinguish your right to bring a claim.
Complex court hierarchy
Ordinary courts are organised in three tiers, and administrative matters go to separate administrative courts. Choosing the wrong forum or failing to meet procedural requirements can delay or derail your case.
Unclear costs and fee exposure
Court fees are generally 5% of the amount in dispute, and recoverable legal fees are capped by statutory rates. Without advice, you may underestimate the financial exposure of litigation.
