With the addition of the new team, the target profile of our clients will expand significantly towards Polish capital and Polish family businesses, which we consider strategically crucial from the point of view of the firm’s development plans. The new team will also significantly strengthen our existing M&A practice and open it up to new areas, such as capital markets,” said Grzegorz Gajda, Managing Partner, Baker Tilly Legal Poland
