We gladly inform that MyLo law firm managed to amicably resolve a dispute concerning the effects of fire in an exclusive hotel in Zakopane, which occurred in December of 2014. MyLo law firm has reached a profitable settlement for the represented injured parties. According to the terms of the settlements, our clients will obtain remuneration for lost property and compensation – including compensation for the nonmaterial damage caused by loss of enjoyment of the holidays.

According to the Supreme Court in such situation the court should apply the provision of article 322 of Polish code of civil procedure.
