The assignment of a lawyer is a relationship of Trust, in which effective work can be expected if the Client trusts the Lawyer, and the Lawyer has professional competence and prudence. With more than a decade of professional experience gained in international law firms, I do my work at a high level in Hungarian, English and German.
My goal is to provide both corporate and private Clients with an efficient, complex legal solution, tailored to their needs as best as possible. In the course of my profession, in the spirit of Trust, I consider it important not to tell my Clients what they want to hear, but what my legal convictions and experience dictate.

After sending your data, we will contact you via phone or email, and within the framework of a preliminary legal opinion, we will inform you about the usual course of similar cases and the already known expected costs.
After that, a preliminary consultation lasting a maximum of half an hour will take place, depending on your needs, either in person or via video call. The contact and first consultation are free of charge and do not imply any financial obligation.
Based on the results of the preliminary consultation, we will prepare our offer, after acceptance of which we will provide legal advice, draft documents, or, in the case of a request for complex legal services, conclude an Attorney Retainer Agreement.
