Magdalena Wiśniewska runs Kancelaria Wisła, a small legal consultancy in the centre of Toruń. She has worked in commercial and employment law for 14 years, first at a regional firm and since 2018 in her own practice. Most of her clients are small business owners and private individuals from Toruń and the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region.

Services

Contract drafting and review

Contract work covers drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements for small companies. Typical documents include service agreements, lease contracts, and cooperation agreements with suppliers. Each contract comes back with written comments that explain the risk points in plain language.

Employment law advice

Employment advice covers hiring documents, terminations, and workplace disputes, for employers and for employees. The service includes preparing employment contracts and internal regulations that meet Polish labour law requirements. Magdalena also represents clients in talks with the opposing side before a case reaches court.

Company formation

Company formation support covers choosing a legal form, preparing founding documents, and filing the registration with the National Court Register (KRS). The service is aimed at first-time founders in Toruń who want the paperwork handled correctly from the start. A standard limited liability company setup takes two to three weeks.

Debt recovery

Debt recovery covers payment demands, settlement negotiations, and court filings for unpaid invoices. The first step is always a formal demand letter, which closes many cases without litigation. When court action is needed, Magdalena prepares the filings and manages the proceedings.

Consumer and tenancy disputes

Dispute support covers consumer complaints, tenancy disagreements, and warranty claims for private clients. Magdalena reviews the documents, explains the realistic options, and drafts the letters or filings needed. Many matters close at the negotiation stage.

GDPR and data protection

GDPR support covers privacy policies, data processing registers, and staff training for small businesses. The work starts with a short audit of how the company actually handles personal data. Clients receive a fixed list of corrections with templates they can apply themselves.

Questions clients ask

How much does a legal consultation cost in Toruń?

A first consultation at Kancelaria Wisła has a fixed fee agreed when the appointment is booked, and it includes a short written summary of the advice. Further work is billed hourly or as a project fee set out in the engagement letter. No fee is charged without prior agreement.

Do I need a lawyer to review a contract before signing?

A contract review makes sense whenever the agreement involves money or obligations you could not comfortably absorb if things go wrong. A review of a standard commercial contract takes two to three working days and comes back with written comments. Lease agreements and long-term service contracts are the documents clients bring most often.

Can you help me set up a sp. z o.o. in Toruń?

Yes, company formation is one of the core services of the practice. Magdalena prepares the founding documents, advises on the share structure, and files the registration with the National Court Register. A straightforward setup is usually complete within two to three weeks, depending on the court's processing time.

What should I do if a client has not paid my invoice?

Start by sending a formal payment demand with a clear deadline, because many debtors pay at this stage. If the deadline passes, the next steps are settlement negotiation or a simplified court payment order. Kancelaria Wisła handles each stage and tells you when further spending on a case stops making sense.

Do you take clients from outside Toruń?

Yes, the practice advises clients across the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region and works remotely with clients elsewhere in Poland. Document review and consultations are handled by email and video call. Court filings can be prepared for courts outside Toruń as well.

Can I get legal advice in English?

Yes, Magdalena advises in English and reviews contracts written in English. Foreign owners of Polish companies make up a regular part of the client base. Written summaries can be delivered in either language.

How quickly can I get an appointment?

New clients can usually book a first consultation within one week. Urgent matters, such as a contract that must be signed within days, are taken on faster when the calendar allows. Booking by phone is quicker than email for urgent cases.

Do you represent clients in court?

Magdalena prepares filings, evidence, and case strategy, and represents clients in negotiations and settlement talks. For courtroom appearances she works with a cooperating attorney who attends the hearings. Clients keep a single point of contact throughout the case.

What clients say

Magdalena reviewed our office lease and caught an indexation clause that would have raised the rent every year. The written comments were clear enough to negotiate without her in the room.

Tomasz K.

She prepared a demand letter for an unpaid invoice and the client paid within two weeks. Fixed price, agreed up front.

Agnieszka P.

Helped us register our sp. z o.o. and explained every document we signed. The court side took longer than I hoped, so plan for some waiting.

Case study

Recovering unpaid invoices for a Toruń joinery workshop

Situation

A family joinery workshop in Toruń had three unpaid invoices from a single commercial client, together worth several months of revenue. The debtor had stopped answering calls and the owners were considering writing the debt off.

Solution

Magdalena sent a formal payment demand, then negotiated a settlement schedule backed by a notarised acknowledgement of debt. The one invoice that remained disputed went to court as a separate simplified payment claim.

Result

Two invoices were paid under the settlement schedule and the court ordered payment of the third. The workshop avoided a longer dispute and closed the matter with its paperwork in order.
