Criminal Defense

The law firm of Advocate Piotr Sęka has extensive experience in representing Clients in criminal , penal-fiscal and petty cases , as well as in cases concerning acts under the Act on Counteracting Drug Addiction or the Act on Proceedings in Juvenile Matters, which fall within the jurisdiction of family departments. We conduct criminal cases

including, among others: crimes against life and health, crimes against traffic safety, crimes against freedom, crimes against freedom of conscience and religion, crimes against sexual freedom and decency, crimes against family and care, crimes against honor and bodily integrity, crimes against against the rights of persons engaged in paid work, crimes against the judiciary, crimes against public order, crimes against the protection of information, crimes against the credibility of documents, crimes against property, crimes against economic transactions, crimes against money and securities trading.

We provide representation of Clients throughout the entire criminal proceedings, starting from the stage of preparatory proceedings, through the court stage before courts of first and second instance, as well as representation at the stage of cassation proceedings. We also provide support at the stage of enforcement proceedings in the field of e.g. cases regarding: electronic surveillance , postponement of the execution of a prison sentence, conditional early release, conditional suspension of the execution of the penalty, pardon, break in serving the sentence, spreading the fine into installments, expungement of the conviction, issuance of a joint sentence, compensation for wrongful pre-trial detention.

 

Assistance of a lawyer at the stage of preparatory proceedings

We defend the accused and represent the interests of the injured parties, auxiliary prosecutors and private prosecutors. It very often happens that clients seek help from lawyers only when they receive the indictment, which is simply put, when the stage of preparatory proceedings has already been completed and the case goes to court. We believe this is a serious error. In fact, it is the pre-trial stage that is the right moment for the suspect to ask a lawyer for help. The same is true of the injured party. It is at this stage that the suspect makes his first explanations, on which much depends. It is at this stage of the proceedings that severe preventive measures are very often applied, e.g. in the form of pre-trial detention, police supervision,

What threatens me?

Customers often underestimate the situation. They are not aware of the legal consequences that they may face if they are found guilty of the act alleged in the indictment. Very often we come across the statement that how the penalty of imprisonment in the so-called "suspension" or a fine is imposed, no big deal after all. However, it is not taken into account, for example, that a conviction, regardless of the type of penalty imposed, will be recorded in the National Criminal Register. As a result, there may be problems with employment, for example. Nowadays, more and more often we meet the requirement of a clean criminal record in order to be able to run for a given position. Sometimes the act itself explicitly states that certain functions or positions cannot be held by persons convicted by a final judgment, e.g.: regulations of the Commercial Companies Code regarding the requirements for members of the management board, supervisory board, audit committee or liquidators. In addition to the basic penalties commonly known by society, i.e. a fine, restriction of liberty or imprisonment, we may be affected by additional legal consequences, e.g. the judgment to the public, or to charge us with the costs of the entire proceedings. Sometimes a conviction in a criminal judgment may have serious legal consequences for us in a possible civil case brought against us.

Sometimes a conviction in a criminal judgment may have serious legal consequences for us in a possible civil case brought against us. in the form of a driving ban, a ban on holding certain positions, a ban on entering mass events, confiscation of property, announcing the judgment to the public, or charging us with the costs of the entire proceedings.

Sometimes a conviction in a criminal judgment may have serious legal consequences for us in a possible civil case brought against us.

It should be remembered that a civil court is bound by a criminal conviction for a crime. Therefore, the civil court will not think twice about our perpetration. This is important because, for example, compensation awarded in criminal proceedings or the obligation to repair damage does not exclude the possibility of pursuing supplementary claims in the course of civil proceedings. As you can see, the legal consequences can be very wide and sometimes difficult to predict at first glance, which is why the role of a lawyer in such situations is invaluable.

Compensation, obligation to repair damage, indemnity

More and more often in criminal proceedings, it is common to make civil claims against the defendants in the form of demands for compensation for the damage caused, compensation for the harm suffered or damages. Making such claims already in criminal proceedings is a convenient solution because, unlike in civil cases, we do not have to pay any court fees in connection with the claims made. In addition, it should be remembered, as has already been mentioned above, that the compensation awarded in criminal proceedings or the obligation to repair the damage does not preclude the pursuit of supplementary claims in civil proceedings. An additional advantage of pursuing civil claims in the course of criminal proceedings is less formalism when it comes to the taking of evidence and the resulting so-called. the burden of command.

Statement on acting as an auxiliary prosecutor

A very common mistake of victims of crime is the lack of their initiative immediately after they have reported a suspected crime. The provisions of criminal procedure give such persons the opportunity, for example, to join the case as auxiliary prosecutors. Of course, the point is not that the aggrieved party has to appear at every hearing date and meet the accused, because there is no such obligation. However, it should be remembered that when you join the case as an auxiliary prosecutor, you become a rightful party to the proceedings. Without such a statement, we are basically treated as a witness to the proceedings. Without such a declaration, we cannot even appeal against the judgment of the first instance.

Voluntary submission to punishment

The provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure give the accused the opportunity to voluntarily submit to criminal liability. We believe that such a solution is often more beneficial for the defendants than to go back and question their perpetration. Sometimes the evidence collected at the stage of preparatory proceedings is so strong that it is difficult to argue with it. Moving towards voluntary submission to criminal liability not only speeds up the entire course of proceedings to basically one hearing, but also gives the opportunity to negotiate more favorable means of criminal response. The role of the lawyer is precisely to determine the most favorable legal consequences for the accused.

Penal appeal

Undertaking to write an appeal against a judgment of the court of first instance in a criminal case without the help of a lawyer is, in our opinion, not the best idea. There is no denying that the judgments of the courts of first instance are not very often changed by the courts of appeal. Writing an appeal on the principle that "a great injustice has befallen me, Your Honor" is unlikely to yield the intended result. Just as no one treats their teeth on their own, it is better to commission a lawyer to write an appeal.

Assistance of a lawyer at the stage of enforcement proceedings

It should be remembered that a final judgment, whether of a court of first or second instance, does not end the activities that an advocate may undertake for the benefit of his client. There are a number of legal solutions that can be implemented for the benefit of convicts. For example, it is possible to apply for: erasing the conviction, for consent to serve the sentence in the electronic monitoring system, for postponement of the execution of the penalty of deprivation of liberty, for suspension of the execution of the penalty of deprivation of liberty, for a break in serving the penalty of deprivation of liberty, for conditional early release from serving the rest of the sentence, for dividing the fine into installments, for remission of the fine, for modification of the decision regarding the penalty of restriction of liberty, for compensation for wrongful conviction, temporary arrest or detention, for issuing a joint sentence and for many other institutions, which may be used to the benefit of the convict. Our Law Firm provides comprehensive legal assistance in criminal cases, starting from the initial stage of preparatory proceedings, ending at the stage of enforcement proceedings.

Civil & Human Rights

Under the concept of civil mattersthere is a very wide range of issues that we deal with on a daily basis. Each of us concludes at least tens, if not hundreds of contracts a year. Many of the contracts functioning in legal transactions contain clauses that are not fully understood and clear, and signing contracts whose provisions are not clear can lead to serious legal problems in the future. A well-written contract, which will be constructed by a lawyer or consulted with a lawyer, reduces the risk of litigation in the future. An attorney will help you make an informed choice. If you intend to sign a contract that is important to you, do not risk it, contact an attorney. The lawyer will help you prepare the contract and negotiate its terms. It will advise in what legal form the contract should be concluded. The lawyer will explain what legal consequences may result from ambiguous or incomprehensible provisions of the contract. The lawyer will draw your attention to unfavorable solutions and illegal contractual clauses. Finally, the lawyer will propose solutions that will protect your interests in the future.

What are civil cases?

Of course, civil matters are not just contractual issues. Under the term of civil cases, we can include, for example: cases for payment against unreliable contractors who do not pay their obligations; matters concerning our property, property, co-ownership; cases concerning usucaption, land or personal easements; property division cases; inheritance matters ; compensation cases; cases to establish a given legal relationship; cases for annulment of given legal relationships and many, many others.

Defense against claims

Civil cases are not only asserting one's rights, but also defending against claims made by other people against us or against our property. Failure to react appropriately on our part to the claims made may lead to the issuance of an order for payment or a default judgment, which will then be the basis for initiating enforcement against us. We always advise that when you receive a letter from the court or from the bailiff, you should immediately take care of your interests, contact a lawyer, consult a lawyer. Don't wait until the deadline set by the court has passed. It is not always possible to restore this date. And most importantly, receive correspondence. Avoiding receiving correspondence is not the best idea. There is still a belief that if the correspondence is not picked up, the case does not concern us. Nothing could be more wrong!

The law firm of Piotr Sęka, Advocate, has many years of experience in representing clients before courts in civil cases throughout the country. If you need legal advice, opinions or a lawyer who will represent you before the Court, we invite you to familiarize yourself with the offer of our Law Firm and to arrange a meeting to discuss the details of cooperation.

Elder Law

The law firm of Piotr Sęk, Advocate, has many years of experience in broadly understood inheritance cases. Inheritance cases should be understood as , inter alia, cases related to the confirmation of the acquisition of inheritance; acceptance and rejection of inheritance; drawing up wills; annulment of wills; unworthiness of inheritance and disinheritance; debt collection records and retained payments; liability for inheritance debts; inheritance of farms and their division; division of inheritance and abolition of co-ownership; evasion of the legal consequences of failure to submit a declaration of rejection of the inheritance within the statutory period.

It should be borne in mind that the law of inheritance imposes a number of obligations on the heirs in connection with the death of the closest person. One of the basic ones, which we should also implement in our own interest, is to conduct proceedings to confirm the acquisition of inheritance.

There is no need to leave these matters for the next generations. This only causes significant complications later in the case. For example, instead of 2 or 4 participants in a case, we can sometimes deal with even 20 or 30 participants, which we recently struggled with before the District Court in Zgierz. I don't think I need to explain what problems can arise in a case with such a number of heirs. The issue of determining the addresses for service, the issue of the service itself, the issue of justifying absences from cases, the issue of preparing a lot of copies of letters, etc. can give you a headache and a simple matter creates a considerable hodgepodge that can last indefinitely.

Certainly, a lawyer in this type of cases can contribute to the efficient completion of the necessary documents, to the preparation of the necessary letters and applications, as well as to the efficient conclusion of the case.

Deadlines in inheritance cases

The law of inheritance also involves a number of different deadlines, the failure to which may have unpleasant consequences for us, e.g. within six months of the death of the testator, we can reject the inheritance. If we do not do this and the testator left us debts, we may have problems with creditors in the future. When we are dealing with minors in the case of inheritance, the issue of obtaining appropriate consents from family courts may come into play. 

Inheritance matters may seem simple and pleasant only on the surface. Meanwhile, matters such as inheritance division can be more complicated and laborious than divorce cases between conflicted spouses. The same is true when it comes to cases of legitim, where considerable amounts of money are often involved. On the one hand, inheritance cases can be a source of considerable financial resources, but on the other hand, such matters can get the heirs into a lot of trouble. If you need legal advice on inheritance law or a lawyer to represent you in an inheritance case, please contact our law firm in Łódź, Zgierz or Ozorków.

Bankruptcy & Debt

The law firm of Attorney Piotr Sęk also offers legal assistance at the stage of enforcement proceedings. It is not true that after issuing a final judgment or order for payment, nothing can be done. The lawyer should point out to the Clients that at the stage of enforcement proceedings there are still a number of different legal solutions that can significantly change the situation of the debtor.

What legal remedies are available at the stage of preparatory proceedings? Many customers ask a fundamental question. Is there anything else that can be done at the enforcement stage? The answer is of course yes! The legislator provided for a number of legal solutions that can be used even when the case is handed over to the bailiff.

What are these legal measures? For example, such a measure may be an opposition claim or a complaint against the bailiff's actions. There may be times when a reopening of the proceedings will have to be considered. It is possible that it will also be possible to submit an application for reinstatement of the deadline, e.g. for lodging an objection or objections against the order for payment, due to the fact that we missed the deadline for challenging them for reasons beyond our control. For example, the creditor provided the wrong delivery address for us.  

It is also possible to try to communicate with the creditor, because it is the creditor who deals the cards in the course of enforcement proceedings. The creditor may, for example, agree to withdraw the enforcement application from the bailiff, which will be tantamount to discontinuation of enforcement. It is also possible to submit an application for securing certain claims by suspending the ongoing enforcement proceedings until the final resolution of a specific case.  

How to get out of debt?

How to get out of the debt loop? There is no simple answer to this question. Maybe bankruptcy will be the way out of this situation? Our law firm conducts cases in the field of consumer bankruptcy. At the outset, however, it should be noted that these are not simple matters, due to the fact that few applications are taken into account. The legislator has provided for many conditions, the fulfillment of which is not always possible, so it is worth having a lawyer take care of your case.

We encourage you to contact our law firm to analyze your case. It is possible that we will be able to help you. There is nothing worse than being passive and assuming that it will somehow work out. It should be remembered that in the course of enforcement proceedings, additional bailiff costs are charged, and statutory interest for delay in repayment of liabilities is still charged.

Employment & Labor

Labor law is, in the simplest terms, a set of legal norms related to the employment relationship, which define the rights and obligations of employees and employers. In fact, we deal with employment law on a daily basis without realizing it. In the field of labor law, a lawyer can act on behalf of both the employer and the employee.

An attorney's assistance to the employer may include: in drawing up important documents, e.g. work regulations, regulations of company social benefit funds, or documents related to entering into or terminating an employment relationship, or in representing the employer before labor courts.

In turn, the lawyer will help the employee in explaining, for example, the rules for granting maternity leaves, the functioning of working time regulations, including the rules for extending settlement periods, in pursuing claims from the employer for, for example, remuneration, payment of overtime amounts, or in pursuing claims related to unlawful termination of employment. When an employee suffers an accident at work, a lawyer can help him establish the existence of an employment relationship and pursue claims for compensation for an accident at work against ZUS and supplementary claims against the employer.

It should be remembered that problems related to professional work can affect each of us at any time, which is why it is worth seeking the advice of a lawyer whose advice can help in solving even the most difficult issues and in obtaining optimal settlements or claims, including financial ones.

Family

Family law is a very extensive area of ​​law that we come into contact with almost every day. Regardless of what we do in life, civil law regulates practically every area of ​​our life. It should be remembered that civil law is not only about property relations. It is also family relations, which in certain situations require  the support of a lawyer .

Colloquially referred to as family law, it is not only divorce and alimony matters. Other matters covered by this concept include: cases regarding the division of joint property of former spouses or the settlement of outlays from personal property to joint property and vice versa, separations, cases regarding the determination or denial of paternity or maternity, matters regarding parental authority, contact with a child, issues related to adoption, custody or guardianship and many more other.  

At first glance, it may seem that family matters are easy and pleasant, but this is only an illusion. Our experience shows that the level of emotions between the parties sometimes reaches the zenith, and the very stage of taking evidence is tedious and laborious.  

In our opinion, the lawyer representing clients in family proceedings before the court ensures proper protection of your interests, offering advice and assistance. In many cases, our life situation and that of our loved ones may depend on the correct legal advice.

The law firm of Adwokata Adwokata Piotr Sęka has many years of experience in family matters not only before the Courts in Łódź, the Court in Zgierz or the Court in Łęczyca, but throughout the country. We invite you to contact our employees in order to obtain detailed information on the Law Firm's offer.
