Shorashim Company represents persons who, as Polish emigrants or their descendents, are interested in confirmation of their Polish citizenship. The majority of people direct their first steps towards the Polish Embassy whereas its role only consists in collecting applications and sending them to an appropriate office in Poland. The Embassy neither offers any particular legal assistance nor checks the applications with regard to formal requirements nor provides any advice if any additional difficulties arise. The entire procedure of confirming the Polish citizenship is conducted before the offices in Poland.
The procedure of confirming the citizenship of the Republic of Poland concerns people who left the Polish territory in 20th century and often lived in a conviction that they had lost it. However, in many cases, that could happen in violation of Polish law, as a result of which, the emigrants, although unaware of the fact, continued to be Polish citizens. We initiate each procedure with a free of charge consultation with the client, during which we assess the chances of the success of the case. We do not take up cases with no prospects for a positive settlement.
Our office is located in Warsaw, i.e. in the immediate vicinity of the offices where the procedure of confirming citizenships takes place. Being on the spot, we have direct contact with the office and, therefore, are able to monitor the course of the procedure on a current basis and, if necessary, make an intervention in Your case. At the same time, we always remain at Your service and keep informing You about the progress in the procedure.
