The Czech Republic is an EU civil-law market with its legal hub in Prague and activity in Brno (seat of the high courts) and Ostrava. Lawyers (advokati) practise in corporate and litigation firms serving banking, real estate, M&A and energy clients, supported by trainee lawyers (advokatni koncipienti), alongside judges, public prosecutors and in-house counsel. EU membership drives strong corporate and commercial demand.
