Testimonials

- ‘Oppenheim has a very complex and versatile team focused primarily on IP rights. The team has experts in many niche areas, and they work in a rather flexible manner; as the cases evolve, they always bring in their best experts.’
‘My main contact was Áron László, whom I consider as a most accomplished IP lawyer. Aron not only has extensive experience in various branches of IP law, not only is he professionally very well connected, but he also has an eye both for the detail and for long-term strategy. I enjoyed working with him over the years. I also have a very high opinion of Andras Cserny.’
‘Professional competence.’
‘Both the team and the individuals are highly skilled professionals with a deep specific sectoral knowledge, providing quick, tailor fitted, practical advice.’
‘They think with the client’s head and understand that we do not need only legal advice, we need commercially viable solutions.'
‘We usually deal with Ivan Bartal, whom we have known for a long time to be a reliable, knowledgeable, yet easygoing lawyer. He always approaches our problems with a holistic view. Also, he usually reminds us that what we consider to be a legal problem always has more angles, and he helps us factor not just legal but commercial, ethical, and reputational aspects into our decisions.'
'Áron László and Kristóf Ormos are extremely well-prepared and cunning lawyers in the field of trade mark/intellectual rights.'
'They have outstanding expertise in intellectual property law. They take care of our trade mark portfolio and make sure that it keeps up to date.'
