How we handle cases in Gorlice
Gorlice is about 135 km from Kraków. That is why we suggest the first conversation takes place remotely, and we meet in Kraków when we need to go through documents together. Appeals against judgments of the Gorlice District Court are heard by the Nowy Sącz Regional Court.
Most people who contact us have criminal, drug or drink-driving cases, and there are also convicted persons and their families with post-sentencing matters. The first conversation can take place by phone - we will tell you then which documents we need.
