Lawyer in criminal cases in Poland
Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine, a very large number of Ukrainians were forced to leave their native homes and go abroad. One of the countries that accepted the most Ukrainians was Poland. That is why the legal representation of the interests of Ukrainians in Poland, in particular, in legal matters, is an urgent service. A lawyer in criminal cases in Poland is one of the services offered by our specialists Prykhodko and Partners.
Powers of a lawyer in criminal cases in Poland
For citizens of Ukraine, prosecution in Poland may be accompanied by entry into the special Register of Residents. What does this say? Such persons will be considered desirable. They may be banned from entering the territory of Poland and the countries of the European Union. That is why it is very important to immediately use the services of professional lawyers to substantiate the correct legal model of behavior.
We have practical experience in protecting the interests of our clients in Poland. Among the most common criminal cases:
- Cases related to traffic accidents.
- Criminal cases related to issues of dignity, honor, sexual freedom.
- Violation of the right to private property.
- Smuggling.
- Illegal border crossing.
Let’s consider the peculiarities of the classification of criminal cases in Poland using the example of violation of traffic rules. If, as a result of the violation of traffic safety rules, harm was caused to another person, such actions fall under the category of “criminal offense”. The type of bodily injuries of road accident participants in Poland is determined by an expert on the basis of an examination and a mandatory forensic medical examination. Anyone can be a victim of a road accident, except for the culprit (passengers, drivers, pedestrians, cyclists).
If as a result of a road accident the victim received injuries of medium severity, the penalty for this crime is a fine, forced labor, imprisonment (term – from 1 month to 3 years). As for serious bodily injury or death of the victim, the perpetrator of the accident faces:
- Fines.
- Forced labor.
- Imprisonment for a period of 6 months to 8 years.
In addition, the court can issue a decision on the deprivation of the right to drive a car (term – from 1 to 15 years) or imprisonment for a period of 6 months to 8 years.
