Baker & McKenzie
With the opening of the Budapest office in 1987, Baker & McKenzie became the first Western law firm to establish a representative office in Central and Eastern Europe. Kajtár Takács Hegymegi-Barakonyi Baker & McKenzie is today one of the leading international law firms in Hungary. Many of our lawyers have studied or worked abroad. All are well attuned to the needs and demands of Hungarian and foreign clients.
In the more than 20 years since, we have developed an exceptional understanding of Hungary’s local legal, business, social and cultural environment. The some 35 lawyers working in the Budapest office have a wealth of experience in coordinating sophisticated international and domestic transactions
We have tailored our work process according to a
system of practice groups, each specialized in different areas of business law:
- General commercial,
- Tax and Real property;
- M&A / Corporate;
- Banking, Finance and Securities; and
- Competition, Trade and European Law.
Our Budapest Real Estate Practice handles all aspects of real estate and commercial transactions, from the routine to the complex, advising clients throughout the entire project, from the acquisition of the property, through the construction phase to the disposal and lease agreements relating to the property.
We have advised on real estate related matters ranging from PPP projects and financings to greenfield projects and all types of leases. We have also gained an acknowledged reputation in real estate related regulatory and licensing matters (e.g., zoning issues, building permit, plot formation) and in advising developers on all matters concerning the development and operation of real estate projects.
