Principles of community life in legal service agreement – gloss to sentence of the Supreme Court of 19th of June 2015, IV CSK 590/14

Abstract

The gloss relates to a case in which that parties (company and solicitors) have concluded a legal service agreement included a reservation of additional compensation for misprision any information gained while providing legal service and for refraining from providing legal service for other competitive companies. According to an author, the dilitation of The Supreme Court with regard to the professional secret is righteous. The author, however, takes into consideration also other aspect of reservation of the agreement – refraining from providing legal service for other competency companies. She indicates that none of relevant regulations define the notion “competitive entities”, what enables to challenge the conclusion of the Supreme Court within this extent.
