History

How the firm began

  1. The firm grew out of an earlier commercial law practice, which is why its early work was mainly in company and commercial law.

  2. Under the new Act on the Legal Profession it became the law office of Mgr. Branislav Samec.

  3. Clients from more countries and new areas of law followed. Today commercial, civil and criminal law form the core of the practice.

  4. Samec & partners, s. r. o.: two lawyers, a trainee lawyer and an economist at Národná 15 in Žilina.
