January 2025 – Kinstellar is delighted to announce the return of László Palócz, a leading M&A lawyer, to our Budapest office, as Counsel, effective 20 January 2025.
László spent over six years at Kinstellar earlier in his career, during which his outstanding work on complex corporate M&A transactions and real estate matters earned him a promotion to Senior Associate.
László brings in-depth expertise in multiple industries, having represented global investors, asset managers, and multinational corporations in landmark projects, including acquisitions, disposals, and lease negotiations. He has played key roles as part of various high-profile M&A transactions advising on complex legal matters and also has significant experience managing multijurisdictional and local due diligence processes from inception to final delivery.
We are delighted to welcome László back to our team. His experience, solution-driven approach, and collegial attitude have always been highly valued by both clients and colleagues. We are confident that he will contribute to the continued success of our firm.

I am thrilled to rejoin Kinstellar and reunite with my former colleagues. This is an incredible opportunity to leverage the knowledge and experience I have gained working on transactions all over Europe as an in-house M&A legal counsel since my departure two years ago, while continuing to work on exceptional projects alongside this outstanding team. I look forward to contributing to the firm’s ongoing achievements.
