With a recent influx of new clients, the employment team at KCG Partners Law Firm saw an increase in mandates related to international mobility issues and the relocation of employees. The practice handles a variety of contentious matters, and is also involved in collective redundancies and large-scale reorganisations. Levente Csengery and Rita Párkányi jointly lead the group; with over 20 years’ experience in employment law, the former is experienced in the establishment and operation of ESOP programs, while the latter brings extensive knowledge of employee data processing to the team. Borbála Maglai, who joined the team from Lohn Law Firm in April 2023, brings employment and immigration litigation experience to the firm. Eszter Ila-Horváth focuses on TUPE laws, terminations and data protection issues.
