About Bělina & Partners
Our law office was founded in 2012 as an association under the name Bělina & Partners and transformed into a limited liability company a year later. However, our roots date back to 1991, when Prof. JUDr. Miroslav Bělina started his legal career as one of the two managing partners of a newly established law firm Kříž & Bělina. For many years, Kříž & Bělina were recognised as a leading Czech law firm, setting the benchmark of excellence in the field. Our law office continues to build on the historical success and tradition of Kříž & Bělina in many ways.
With years of tradition in legal services and a strong presence in the Czech legal landscape, our company stands as a trusted partner, equipped with the necessary expertise, insight and stability. We engage with the younger generation to keep up with the times, while leveraging modern technologies, learning new things and fearlessly tackling new challenges. The hallmark of our work is a blend of tradition and experience with the creativity and dynamism of the modern, fast-paced era.
We may be a law firm, but our activities cross borders with teaching, science and legislation. For many years, Prof. JUDr. Miroslav Bělina headed the Department of Labour Law and Social Security at the Faculty of Law of Charles University in Prague. He was also long a member of the Legislative Council of the Czech Government and a number of professional associations and groups. He leads the collective of authors of the commentary on the Labour Code published by the C. H. Beck publishing house, co-authored by another of our partners, JUDr. Tomáš Bělina. They both are also co-authors of commentaries on the Labour Code and the Civil Service Act published by the Wolters Kluwer publishing house.
Labour law and all the related aspects have long been our domain of interest. We have also always specialised in representing clients in litigation and arbitration. But our focus extends beyond these fields. Over the years, we have gained further experience and our specialisation today stretches over many areas of law. These include the increasingly topical fields, such as the protection of intellectual property, environmental protection, competition and information and communication technologies, along with traditional areas, such as civil and commercial law, corporate law, criminal law, family law, administrative law and real estate law.
Our team combines the experience of seasoned attorneys with the creativity of young talented lawyers. The law office’s partners are also active arbitrators at the permanent Arbitration Court attached to the Czech Chamber of Commerce and the Agricultural Chamber of the Czech Republic. JUDr. Tomáš Bělina is a long-standing member of the Control Committee of the Czech Bar Association, a body responsible for monitoring compliance with ethical rules in the practice of law. We always strive to set an example in this respect.
Our law firm has been a member of the International Practice Group since its establishment . Thanks to our membership in this International Practice Group of more than 100 law firms and tax advisors from all over the world, we are able to arrange for our clients co-operation with foreign experts, representation before foreign courts and authorities and legal services with an international scope. The international cases we have been dealing with for many years prove this.
