Przemek Kastyak, Partner

Beginning in 2002, Przemek joined the team as a student. He was immediately impressed with what he saw, his colleagues’ professionalism, and the great atmosphere.

I was surprised by the speed with which I was given more responsibility. As well as doing the usual court runs, I began working directly with clients pretty quickly.

The firm appreciated Przemek’s eagerness to work hard, learn on the job, and be a real part of the team.

After about six months, I got the chance to work on a case, and I was able to recover a large sum of money from a debtor for a Swedish client in only a matter of days. I couldn’t believe it, and neither could the team! I was so proud.

While working on a whole range of cases – from IT contracts to complex disputes – Przemek found his passion in real estate and began to specialise in construction.

What I’ve always loved about construction law is that it requires a unique blend of legal prowess and technical expertise.

A real breakthrough for Przemek came when he was entrusted with tackling a huge construction investment project on his own. He did it to great success. Now a partner and board member – a reward for his hard work, loyalty, and exceptional business skills – Przemek heads up his own team of dedicated construction lawyers.

Iga Piotrowska, Senior Associate

After working in several firms, Iga made the leap from in-house to law firm lawyer when she joined the team in 2017.

I felt pretty anxious as I was joining a group of people who knew each other very well and worked together seamlessly as a team. I was convinced it would be difficult to fit in, but I couldn’t have been more wrong: I was welcomed with open arms from the very first day.

Iga was most impressed with the professionalism and motivation of the team around her and the way partners maintained relations and built trust with clients who grew together with the law firm.

I would highlight the fact that when joining Penteris, you’re joining a long-term project where you are given the chance to build your career from scratch in a friendly, relaxed environment where with perspectives ample opportunities for growth.

Iga was given the opportunity to showcase her skills by working in her areas of interest – retail and real estate. Since then, she has been helping clients negotiate, sign, and amend lease agreements, as well as advising on countless retail and real estate transactions.
