The team makes exceptional efforts in investigating relevant facts to establish a strong case for each and every one of our clients. Their expertise and success comes from the fact that the litigation team involves the best lawyers in the office on specific mandates.


Our Budapest Dispute Resolution practice is one of the strongest practices on the Hungarian market. Lawyers benefit from a long-established reputation for representing domestic and global companies in wide-ranging litigation matters, including tax-related litigation, commercial real estate and product liability disputes and white-collar litigation. 


Bird & Bird is also well positioned to advise clients on settling their claims out of court and on alternative legal methods and procedures for the enforcement of their claims. As part of Bird & Bird's global network, the Budapest office provides a one-stop shop for clients seeking representation in dispute resolution, which has become essential given the increasing trend for cross-border matters.
