For the finance team at DLA Piper Giziński Kycia sp.k., real estate finance transactions are a core focus, and the practice assists both lenders and borrowers in this arena. Recently, the group has been particularly active in projects surrounding student accommodation, PRS and micro-living projects, and its strong capabilities extend across a wide range of mandates, from development and acquisition financing to refinancing and restructuring. Also of note for the team is its expertise in securitisation and export finance transactions. Mariusz Hyla spearheads the practice, and his client roster includes domestic and international financial institutions. Other key members of the team include Katarzyna Wacławek, who has expertise in representing financial institutions in enforcement proceedings, and Bartłomiej Palusiak, who is skilled in real estate and asset financing mandates. Aleksander Haleniuk departed for Dentons at the beginning of 2025.
