litigation

The Litigation Program of the Ordo Iuris Institute for Legal Culture was established to exert an active and professional influence on judicial and administrative jurisprudence in cases involving the defense of the family and the freedoms of conscience and speech of those who are socially excluded because of their value system. The ideas that the Ordo Iuris Institute defends in all its academic and analytical activities find both their justification and application in the Litigation Program.

Advocates, legal advisers, and trainees from across Poland who cooperate with the Ordo Iuris Institute represent the beneficiaries of the Litigation Program in civil, criminal, family, misdemeanor, labor, and administrative court cases. In their work, they come into direct contact with families and individuals harmed or attacked because of their traditional values, even though those values are affirmed in the Polish Constitution.

The lawyers of the Ordo Iuris Institute act in defense of the principle of subsidiarity, which serves as a barrier against state interference in the autonomy of family life. Through our efforts, children who were removed from their parents due to low material status or malicious accusations are returned home. We provide support to doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and midwives experiencing difficulties in practicing their profession according to their best knowledge and conscience. We act as advocates for freedom of speech and assembly, defending pro-life activists persecuted for their publicly expressed views. We use all legally available means to ensure that those responsible for injustices committed in the name of harmful ideologies face the consequences of their actions.
