What do our clients say?

"I would hate to ever find myself as the opposing party to them…"
Erik Macalík, Chubb
“JŠK lawyers focus on tailoring the best legal solutions while keeping their client’s commercial objectives in mind has led to many successful outcomes. We cannot recommend the firm more highly.”
Victor Rae-Reeves, Clyde & Co
“Many times, the solutions proposed by JŠK have brought significant savings in both time and particularly financial resources. As a liquidator with a technical background, I appreciate that JŠK’s analyses are written in plain language and provide a clear and comprehensible picture of the particular problem that is being resolved.”
Václav Škopek, Colonnade

We know that a lot is at stake.

We will fight on your behalf
We treat disputes as a game of chess. We take the time to understand your business. Flawless legal analysis is just the start – what is important to us is a subsequent well-thought-out strategy and carefully formulated submissions that don’t give our opponents even a millimetre of disputed territory for free and that reliably turn disputes to our (mutual) side.
We will help you make the right decisions
Disputes need not, and often should not, end up in court. We begin each case with a realistic assessment of it – this means a really rational identification of strengths and weaknesses. Thanks to the hundreds of hours we have spent in courtrooms, we know how to recognise what will be decisive in the final outcome. We can also guide you accordingly – to litigate or to settle? An out-of-court settlement is not a loss, often it is the opposite. However, a favourable negotiating position will require a strong argument. And we will definitely take care of that.
Tailor-made solution
When we get to court, you can expect a comprehensive solution. We will put the necessary evidence together. From a wide database of proven experts we will chose the most suitable one and arrange high-quality expert reports. Disputes with an international dimension are no problem for us either and we have lots of experience working with foreign law firms and experts.
Working with us is an enjoyable experience
We have excellent relations with our clients. We are a friendly and diverse professional team composed of personalities who have a wealth of differing experience. We are not a team of soloists, but a highly functional unit of great team players. We want to make sure that our clients understand US. For maximum commitment we also need you as a partner from whom nothing is hidden and who therefore will not have to read whole novels full of reservations and problems. We are used to working with managers who want to get straight to the problem.
