Warsaw Bar of Legal Counsels

Katarzyna Wróbel specialises in employment law and compensation claims. She represents employees in disputes with their employers, and people who have been harmed in recovering what they are owed.

She read law at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków and then completed her legal counsel training in Warsaw. As a student she volunteered at the university law clinic, giving free employment advice to people in difficult working situations — an experience that still shapes how she practises.

A course in personal injury assessment lets her challenge the low valuations insurers often put forward. For well over a decade she has handled road accident, medical and property claims, while also representing employees in unfair dismissal cases and advising on whether workplace policies comply with the law.

Katarzyna is a member of the Warsaw Bar of Legal Counsels and keeps up with changes in compensation law and Supreme Court employment case law. What clients value most is her honest view of a case’s prospects — given at the very first meeting.
