LAVO AFTER HOURS

Our small contribution to better tomorrow

The law is not just court cases

At LAVO, we believe that the law has the power to create a better future for everyone. We engage in various activities aimed at positively influencing the lives of others. We focus on two main areas: supporting public benefit organizations and supporting education.

Pro bono – a law firm that gives more

Our law firm is involved in activities for public benefit organizations. We cooperate with various institutions such as foundations and associations, to serve our knowledge and legal skills. We advise and assist during negotiations and represent in administrative proceedings.

We actively participate in charity events. We are proud that we can play with The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity by offering our legal services at its auctions or by being volunteers. We are glad that we can make a small contribution to the mission of our partners and help them build a better tomorrow.

Legal education for everyone

We believe that legal knowledge should be available to everyone. That’s why LAVO organizes educational meetings and workshops, aimed at providing basic information in the field of law. We address these events to kids, students, and also adults, who want to broaden their knowledge in various fields of law.

We also operate as part of the largest educational initiatives organized by the Ministry of Justice and the Polish Bar Council. We are guided by the principle that legal education does not have to be complicated and theoretical – we focus on simple language and a practical approach.

If you have found yourself in a difficult life situation or your non-profit organization needs legal support – write to us. Together we will find the best solution to your problem.
