Counsel Tomáš Melišek is appointed new head of our Slovak Banking & Finance practice
April 2021 – Kinstellar’s Bratislava office ushered in 2021 with several key staff changes. Among the most significant of these is the promotion of our colleague Tomáš Melišek to Counsel. We are also pleased to announce that Tomáš has been appointed as head of the local banking and finance practice.
Tomáš is an attorney-at-law with more than 12 years of experience. His background includes working as an in-house lawyer at one of the leading banks in Slovakia and as a lawyer in the Prague office of a “magic circle” international law firm.
Tomáš focuses on project and acquisition financing, as well as on financial regulations. He has substantial experience advising on real estate transactions and has also advised clients on financing significant projects in the areas of energy, infrastructure, automotive, media, and technologies. His experience also includes leading teams of lawyers involved in the sale of several banks and insurance companies in Slovakia.
According to clients “Tomáš is a rare expert; he is always willing and able to find a suitable solution for his client who can argue even before the counterparty.“ (Legal 500, 2020)
Tomáš will be further supported by key members of our Banking & Finance team in Bratislava, including Dominika Bajzáthová (Managing Associate), Martin Koša (Senior Associate), and Dáša Labašová (Associate).
We are confident that Tomáš will drive the performance of our banking and finance team in Bratislava forward and wish him all the best!
