I got to know Dr Petra Zaoralová in her capacity as an attorney successfully representing our company in a relatively complicated dispute. Over the course of the case, which did not seem very promising, she managed to turn things around in our favour. Credit for this goes to the several qualities and abilities which characterise her: The ability to use her expertise and previous experience; Consistency in evaluating known facts and tracking down missing evidence; Uncompromising examination of facts and putting them in logical order; Friendly, fair and highly professional conduct; A sense of fair-play; The ability to work until results are achieved. In my experience, Dr Zaoralová stands head and shoulders above the rest, providing legal services of a superlative standard.
