Her advice is sought by leading companies in the insurance and banking sector, for which she has worked out and implemented, in cooperation with other professionals, a variety of innovative concepts. Dorota is a licensed tax advisor. Before joining Hogan Lovells in 2007, she worked as a director at a large professional consulting firm, heading the FMCG practice. Although Dorota continues to provide advice to the consumption sector, she has also recognized the new needs of the market and has engaged in providing specialized advice to the insurance and banking sector, infrastructure investments as well as projects implemented under the public-private partnership. In this respect, she supports clients in planning, implementing, and financing projects.
