I am a seasoned lawyer specializing in corporate law, intellectual property management, and protection. With extensive experience, I have successfully combined strategic and tactical legal expertise in various roles across different countries, including Poland, Cyprus, the Netherlands, and Belarus. I have a strong background in drafting, revising, and negotiating commercial agreements, managing contracts, and providing legal advice on intellectual property issues. My roles have also involved training junior staff, managing subsidiaries, and ensuring compliance with corporate policies and procedures. In my recent role at Social Discovery Group, I developed IP protection strategies, managed contracts, and provided legal support for companies in multiple jurisdictions. As a Legal Advisor at startups.family, I assisted startups with legal framework establishment, IP protection, compliance, and contract management. My earlier positions at IT-Legal and Revera Law Firm focused on advising clients on IP issues and corporate governance, supporting M&A deals, and developing enforcement strategies for IP portfolios. Additionally, my experience as a Senior Crime Investigator provided me with a deep understanding of economic and corruption crimes, further enriching my legal expertise.Tech Stack
