The sizeable dispute resolution team at Dentons continued to grow this past year, with the addition of new practice head Gergely Stanka, alongside a team of seven practitioners, from Burai-Kovacs, Perlaki, Stanka, Szikla & Partners in July 2023. The strengthened group continues to service a diverse client base and covers work ranging from tax, white-collar and financial litigation to real estate, construction and employment disputes. Stanka’s broad practice covers both litigation and alternative dispute resolution proceedings, including both domestic and international arbitration. István Réczicza brings over 30 years of experience representing both private and state-owned companies and sovereigns to the group. Ádám Kulcsár has experience representing financial institutions, while László Fenyvesi focuses on energy regulation matters. International arbitration is one of Mihály Czesznak’s particular areas of expertise.
