Public Aid and Grants

This practice offers legal assistance in matters relating to state aid, grants and subsidies, including EU-funded. We have experience in notifying state aid for major projects to the European Commission and in block exemption projects. Such projects often require liaison with local authorities or public institutions.

We can support clients in applying for funding, during contest or appeal procedures, in performing co-financing agreements, state aid monitoring, in maintaining rates and project durability, as well as in litigation relating to financial adjustments or all kinds of audits (e.g. by Managing Authority, Supreme Audit Chamber, the competition watchdog). We help prepare and conduct public contracting processes based on official guidelines and public procurement principles.
