We recently expanded our market-leading tax team by the arrival of Gergely Czoboly. Before joining us Gergely worked as anexpert at the International Taxation Department of the Ministry of Finance. In his previous job Gergely was the Hungarian delegate to the OECD’s Working Party on Aggressive Tax Planning, also participating at the negotiations of the BEPS and the ATAD directives.
From July, 2020 our capital markets & regulatory group will operate as an independent practice of Jalsovszky. The area of expertise continues to rely on our market-leading finance and banking group, however it will operate as a separate practice area.
Our podcast series called 'We Make Sense of Hungary' have just aired. In our first episode, our guest is Dr. Dániel Karsai, an independent lawyer specialized in human rights and constitutional law. We discuss whether businesses should be concerned about the “state of danger” that was introduced in Hungary as a response to the Covid-19 crisis. We also explore why officers of the Hungarian army have appeared at some companies. Stay tuned for further episodes!

Legal500, one of the most prestigious publications that rates law firms around the world, has recently published its rankings for 2020.
We were pleased to see that our Tax practice is still regarded as a market leader. And in 2020 our Real Estate practice was ranked close to the top, as were our M&A and our Banking & Finance practices. It was also gratifying to see that after a year of challenging and successful work, our litigation practice earned a place in the rankings.
Our colleagues are not lazy even in winter time. It is well known that we are sporty and also active in the winter. In mid-January, our ski-loving colleagues slipped to Austria and took the Nassfeld ski slopes, with skis and snowboards on their feet. In four days we skied a total of 114 km and laughed for countless minutes. JalsovSKI you were great, see you next year.
At the gala ceremony held at the end of November, Wolters Kluwer handed out again their annual awards to lawyers and legal teams. We are happy to announce that just like a year ago, our office won again the award of Tax Group of the Year Award. Receiving this prize is a real honour for us, as the panel considered innovation, customer focus, and professionalism as the most important factors to pick the winner in each category.
The prize was awarded to our submission entitled ‘Innovative tax structure for innovative businesses’, submitted by István Csővári and Anilla Gondi.
Our firm's commitment to the CEE region is reflected in the fact that we now publish articles and news on the CEE Legal Matters website. Our aim is to inform legal counsels working in the region about changes in the law that may have a bearing on doing business in and with Hungary.

Community, sport, active relaxation – these were the defining themes of our office sports weekend. This year, it was down to Lake Balaton, where one of our biggest challenges was simply staying upright on our stand-up paddle boards. Not as easy as it looks! But all four of us falling into the water at once was certainly an experience to remember!
We enjoyed the activity, and recommend it to anyone that fancies having fun and literally “chilling out” in a natural setting!
