What epravo.cz does

EPRAVO.CZ, a.s. is a Czech legal information platform founded in 1999 and headquartered in Prague's Old Town district (Dušní 907/10, Staré Město). The company operates a web-based portal providing Czech legal professionals — attorneys, judges, legal scholars — as well as businesses and law students with access to continuously updated legislation (Sbírka zákonů), court decisions (Judikatura), legal articles, and professional commentary across civil, commercial, insolvency, financial, administrative, labor, criminal, EU, and public procurement law. Its technical stack centers on a searchable legal information portal with filtering by practice area, full-text search across laws, and a monitoring service that alerts subscribers to relevant case law updates.

The company monetizes through eight distinct streams: an EPRAVO.CZ Premium subscription tier, online professional courses, live-streamed online conferences, recorded conference content sold as one-time purchases, in-person conferences, legal publications and books, a case law monitoring subscription service, and a partner/advertising program. Go-to-market is product-led with content marketing, SEO-driven organic discovery, email newsletters to registered users, and event-based marketing through flagship industry awards (Právník roku / Lawyer of the Year co-organized with the Czech Bar Association since 2005, and Právnická firma roku / Law Firm of the Year under the patronage of the Ministry of Justice). The company is a privately held joint-stock company with founder Miroslav Chochola as Chairman of the Board, no disclosed external investors, no subsidiaries, and operations confined to the Czech Republic.
