We combine the experience and expertise of SSW’s numerous specialist teams to provide the most comprehensive advice. We attend industry events and monitor how legal reforms affect the defence sector to best understand the sector’s specificities and the related legal requirements.
Defence sector

- Establishing and organising new entities in Poland for international suppliers of military services and equipment;
- Advising on mergers and acquisitions involving entities in the defence sector;
- Advising on the legal and tax aspects of R&D activities in the defence sector, including pro-innovation relief;
- Providing day-to-day legal and tax services to defence companies on areas including inter alia: labour law, intellectual property law and litigation.
Selected projects
