Czech Bar Association No. 18063 Attorney-at-law — Ostrava In law since 1997

I see the law from both sides of the table.

For seventeen years I served as a judge. Since 2018 I have practised as an attorney-at-law in Ostrava.

Career
§ 01About me
Mgr. Ing. Helena Ondryášová · Ostrava

Experience from the courtroom. Perspective from both sides.

I studied law at Charles University in Prague and economics at VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava. After my judicial traineeship at the Regional Court in Ostrava, I was appointed judge of the District Court in Ostrava.

For seventeen years I saw every day how a court reads a case file: which arguments hold up, what it expects from the parties and where disputes are needlessly drawn out. This perspective cannot be learned from books — it only comes with years on the bench.

In 2018 I moved to the other side of the table and founded my own law office. I carry a judge’s perspective with me: calm, objectivity and respect for the way a court reasons.

„Every matter has two sides. I have learned to see both.“

§ 03Practice

Three areas. One method: diligence.

A well-prepared dispute is half resolved. Sometimes it never needs to reach the court at all.

  • Contractual relations
  • Damages
  • Unjust enrichment
  • Enforcement of judgments
  • Out-of-court dispute resolution

Buying or selling property is often the largest transaction of a lifetime. It deserves calm and certainty.

  • Purchase and gift agreements
  • Land registry
  • Attorney escrow
  • Easements and liens

Sensitive matters call for discretion, patience and solutions one can live with.

  • Divorce and spousal agreements
  • Community property of spouses
  • Child custody and maintenance
  • Marital property agreements
§ 04Real estate

Value measured in decades.

Besides the law, I also devote myself to real estate. I look at it the same way I look at the law: with patience, an eye for detail and respect for what is meant to last.
