Jalsovszky

Jalsovszky is a business-oriented law firm with a logical mindset. We are not experts in all areas of law, but when it comes to what we specialise in, we are among the best.

We are known for our human oriented approach. We believe that building a good personal relationship with our clients is no barrier to maintaining high professional standards. We aim furthermore, that our colleagues should be able to work in a friendly and liveable environment, and find enjoyment and fulfilment in their work.

Since 2005, we have grown from a sole practice firm into one of Hungary’s leading legal consultants. There may be a reason for this.

Practice areas

Tax:Giving advice on tax matters is always an intellectual challenge. Perhaps this is why we like this field so much. We also enjoy that, amidst the dynamically changing tax rules we, too, need to continuously adapt and evolve. And few achievements can be as satisfying as successfully challenging a decision of the tax authority.

Mergers and acquisitions:M&A transactions have everything that makes legal work so fulfilling: creativity, precision, problem-solving, and – if and when the deal is closed – the thrill of success. We know that a ‘front page’ deal is usually the culmination of months of less publicised, but thorough and intensive work on our part.

Commercial law:It is a major source of pride for us that a growing number of clients are using us to take care of their everyday corporate law, labour law and intellectual property-related affairs. In these mandates we perform the routine legal works: preparing contracts, drafting opinions, conducting negotiations –the challenge lies rather in the diversity of the assignments.

Banking and finance:A finance transaction, in our view, should not be a tussle between two opposing parties. After all, the bank and the borrower share a common aim: to establish a financing structure that helps to ensure the successful operation of the financed project, which in turn generates the funds to repay the loan. We keep this concept in our mind when upon drafting the documentation.

Real estate:This is a practice that is easy to like, as the results are physically present, visible and tangible. We tend not to over complicate the matters with a rigid legalistic approach: if we raise a problem, it is certain that we are about to suggest a solution as well. Most real estate transactions also have tax implications: this is the area where we are most in our element.

Litigation:There’s one thing all lawyers agree on: litigation is the top of legal work. While we relish and enjoy the challenge of litigation, as a matter of principle we only take on cases that we also believe in personally. In this way, whenever we win a lawsuit – beside the sense of success – we feel that we have also done something to make the world a better place.
