Peter Roháček – Attorney-at-Law in Bratislava

With more than 14 years of legal experience, I focus on specific areas of law that require deep expertise and an international perspective. My goal is to provide clients with solutions built on real-world experience from both domestic and European environments.

Expertise Proven in Practice

My experience was primarily shaped by working in the following areas:

Customs Law: Complex legal aspects of the import, export, and transit of goods.
Intellectual Property: Enforcement of rights to trademarks and other intangible assets by customs authorities.
European Agenda: Representing the Slovak Republic in expert negotiations at the European Commission in Brussels and experience with proceedings before the Court of Justice of the EU.

Publication and Consulting Activities

I believe that a true expert must not only master the topic but also shape it. I am the author of the first and currently only commentary on the law regarding the enforcement of intellectual property rights by customs authorities in Slovakia. I also deepened my expertise as a consultant in Jordan, where I prepared a legal comparative analysis of customs processes, and as a quality assessor for the customs sector in the Emirate of Ajman (UAE). I currently serve as the Lead Expert for the Revision of Mongolia's Customs Legislation under the EU ITDM project.

Comprehensive Legal Support

Many years of legal practice allow me to provide high-quality advice in the following sectors:

Civil Law
Commercial Law
Administrative Law and Administrative Justice
Intellectual Property Protection
Customs Law
Labor Law
Criminal Law

I speak your business language - in English and Spanish.

International legal matters require not only legal expertise but also precise communication in your language. In recent years, my work has focused almost exclusively on providing legal services to foreign clients. Thanks to my proficiency in English and Spanish, I provide direct legal services without the need for external interpreters, including:

Drafting contractual documentation in a foreign language
Representation in cross-border disputes and proceedings before foreign authorities
Communication with partners throughout the EU, as well as other regions of the world

Professional Experience Highlights

Legal services for global technology, banking, pharmaceutical, and telecom clients.
Consultant on customs legal frameworks in Middle East and East Asia.
Representation before EU courts in Luxembourg.
Author of a leading commentary on customs enforcement of intellectual property law in Slovakia.

I was looking for a customs law expert in Bratislava. We were resolving a complicated dispute with the customs office regarding the tariff classification of goods according to the Combined Nomenclature. The lawyer demonstrated deep knowledge of European legislation and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU. Thanks to his meticulously drafted appeal, the original decision was overturned, saving us significant funds on customs duties and VAT. I recommend him to anyone looking for an expert in customs procedures.
