Over the course of her career, Annamária has been recognised by the main international legal directories Chambers and Legal 500 as one of the leading lawyers in Hungary for Corporate/M&A matters.

Kristóf Ferenczi, Managing Partner of our Budapest office, comments: “We are delighted to welcome a senior lawyer of Annamária’s calibre to our office and to the wider regional Corporate M&A team. Annamária’s outstanding track-record, excellent reputation and finely-honed market knowledge are an excellent fit to our robust Corporate and M&A team in Budapest and will further enhance the leadership of this important service line. Our goal is to continue to grow ambitiously with a dynamic, highly skilled and diverse team to best serve our clients and I am confident that Annamária’s joining will solidify our ability to achieve that.”

Annamária adds: “I am thrilled to join Kinstellar’s impressive Corporate M&A practice, with its strong footprint and commitment to top-level client service. I believe that the unique platform Kinstellar represents and the breadth of its network will allow me to grow and, together with Kinstellar’s outstanding Corporate M&A team in Hungary and throughout the firm, we will further expand our practice in Hungary and the wider CEE/SEE region. I very much look forward to working with the team and to further consolidating the practice together."
