more than 22 million Poles live outside Poland, while many still have unresolved legal matters here?

Five questions about citizenship

Citizenship isn't given. It's confirmed.

Under Polish law, citizenship passes from parent to child at the moment of birth, in any country. The proceeding in Poland does not create a new status - it establishes whether one already exists. Five questions show whether a family line is worth examining.

About two minutes. There is no cost, and you receive the result by email within 24 hours on business days.

About Polonia Iuris

Created for the legal matters you still have in Poland.

Polonia Iuris was created in response to the needs of Poles living abroad. Through the cases we have handled, we have traveled to the United States on numerous occasions - representing our clients and meeting with members of the Polish diaspora.

These conversations helped us understand the challenges caused by distance, unfamiliar Polish procedures, difficulty locating documents, and the lack of a trusted legal representative able to manage the entire matter in Poland.

Experience grounded in practice

Our approach has grown from the proceedings we conduct and our direct conversations with the Polish diaspora.

Full legal support in Poland

We primarily handle civil and administrative matters, coordinating every necessary step locally.

A clear path to resolution

We explain the procedure, help gather the documents, and guide the client through each stage of the matter.

Our team

Partners who set the direction. A team that handles your matter.

Polonia Iuris is more than the three people presented below. The partners are responsible for our standards and the coordination of matters, while each case is entrusted to a lawyer or team selected for its particular nature. This gives every client access to someone who understands the relevant area of law and the practical realities of proceedings in Poland.

Before you write to us

Working with a Polish law firm from the United States

Do I need to come to Poland?

Usually not. We handle matters before Polish courts, offices, and registries under a power of attorney, and consultations take place online. Your personal presence is needed only in some matters, for example when a court decides to hear you directly.

Which language do you work in?

Polish or English, in writing and in calls. Write to us in whichever you prefer.

What does the first contact cost?

Nothing. We review your inquiry free of charge and tell you which area of law it belongs to and what the next step is, and the first 15 minutes of the call are free. If paid work is needed, we confirm the price and the stages in writing before it begins.

How are your fees set?

Fees are quoted in U.S. dollars. Each practice area page lists indicative ranges for its typical steps; court and administrative fees, sworn translations, apostilles, and notary costs are separate; we calculate them when we quote your matter, after the free review of your inquiry, so you know the full cost before you decide. You can also choose hourly billing: USD 150 an hour, with a report after the first five hours and your decision on whether we carry on.

How do we stay in touch across the time difference?

By email or the contact form, and by phone, video call, or WhatsApp at a time we schedule together. We have both a Polish and a U.S. phone number.

Where can I read about my kind of matter first?

In our guides. They explain the most common matters, from inheritance and property to citizenship and family cases, and name the legal basis for each. They are general information; for your own situation, write to us directly.

Is what I send you confidential?

Yes. Lawyers in Poland are bound by professional secrecy, and our privacy policy explains how we handle personal data. Sending the contact form does not by itself make you a client; that happens once an engagement is confirmed in writing.
