Tomasz Zalewski

I am a partner in the Commercial team in Warsaw. My expertise spans from government contracts, IT implementation, and licensing agreements, to technology related disputes.

I have advised on numerous large scale IT projects, involving comprehensive implementation of complex software in both traditional and SaaS models.

I advise on all aspects of public procurement law, and represent clients in procurement disputes before the National Appeal Chamber and the courts. I have particular experience advising on infrastructure and IT projects, representing both contractors and contracting authorities.

Many of my clients are companies within the IT and technology sectors, although I also work with clients in the healthcare, energy, industrial automation, defence, and retail & consumer space.

My professional interests include legal aspects of the application of the latest technologies, such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, the internet of things, and cybersecurity. I have significant experience of advising tech start-ups.

I am an expert at the Council of the Polish IT and Telecommunications Chamber. I also serve as an expert for the European Assistance for Innovation Procurement initiative. I am a recommended arbitrator for the creative market and culture market at the Arbitration Court at the Polish Confederation Lewiatan.

I am recognised by Chambers & Partners, Legal 500 and Who's Who Legal as a leading individual in TMT, IP and public procurement.
