Summary/Abstract: The article presents how EU and Polish rules on the protection of the confidentiality of communi-cations between a qualified lawyer and a client (legal professional privilege, LLP) have evolvedover the 20 years of Poland’s membership in the European Union. In addition, the article attemptsto critically assess current Polish legal provisions, as amended in 2023, particularly in light of EUcase law. A generally positive assessment of introducing the self-standing rules on LPP into thePolish competition law system is supplemented by critical remarks aimed at developing an inter-pretation of these legal provisions, which fully takes into account EU case law and standards forprotecting the rights of undertakings.
