dr. Kaiser Kristóf
Partner
Kristóf graduated summa cum laude (GPA: 5.00) from the Faculty of Law at the University of Pécs. During his university years, he led a specialized academic college section and achieved top placements in national academic competitions. As a trainee lawyer, he gained experience at a law firm serving an international client base.
Kristóf is known for a maximalist mindset, proactive problem-solving approach, strategic thinking, and strong coordination skills, combined with a high level of sensitivity to understanding and structuring client needs.
Despite his relatively young age, he has developed advanced expertise in contract law, transactional matters, corporate law, financial sector regulation, and securities law.
Since 2020, Kristóf has operated his own law firm under the name Kristóf Kaiser Law Firm. In the same year, Kaiser & Pilisi Attorneys-at-Law was established by Dr. Kristóf Kaiser and Dr. Fanni Kaiser-Pilisi to provide premium-quality legal services through a modern, dynamic, and integrated approach tailored to the challenges faced by twenty-first-century legal practice.
The Kaiser & Pilisi team has extensive experience in tax law, criminal law, trusts, private equity funds, real estate and construction law, company law, and acquisitions, including numerous M&A and direct investment transactions. The firm provides a full range of bespoke corporate legal services, including company formation, acquisition of equity stakes, management of M&A transactions, and comprehensive legal due diligence.
Kaiser & Pilisi also advises clients on complex corporate governance, compliance, and regulatory matters, as well as on syndicate and joint-venture agreements and sophisticated restructuring transactions.
Sailing Career:

Prior to this, Kristóf spent eight years competing in high-performance multi-crew catamaran racing as helm and team leader of the Prospex Team. During this period, the team achieved exceptional results at Hungary’s most prestigious regattas:

Under Kristóf’s leadership, the Prospex Team became one of the most successful and consistently performing catamaran racing teams in Hungary.
dr. Pilisi Fanni LLM
Partner
Fanni graduated from the Faculty of Law of the University of Pécs in 2012. Following her graduation, she was admitted to the University’s doctoral programme, where she continued her studies as a PhD student at the Department of Criminal Law. As a member of the Department, she was actively involved both in academic research and in teaching.
To date in her career, she has gained significant experience in criminal law, representing both defendants and victims. Her research focuses on the theoretical and the practical aspects of official and corruption-related offences, on which she has published numerous articles and studies in leading professional journals. She fulfilled the PhD requirements and successfully passed her doctoral comprehensive examination in 2016.
She has always considered her professional development to be of great importance: in 2015, she obtained an LL.M. in Economic Criminal Law from the University of Pécs, and in her practice, she attaches particular importance to keeping her knowledge of the legal and regulatory environment up to date while continuously expanding her expertise.
During her university years, she gained practical experience both from the perspective of the prosecution and of the defence. She began her traineeship in Pécs and continued it in Budapest from 2015. Even as a trainee, she was involved in several high-profile criminal proceedings related to economic offences, which allowed her to gain significant practical experience. She passed the bar exam in 2017.
In recent years, her professional focus has started to encompass corporate law, transactions, and contracts as well. She regularly participates in M&A transactions and in other complex projects, contributing not only to developing their structure, but also to negotiating, drafting, and commenting on contracts. Her work is defined by strong commercial awareness, a thorough and solution-oriented mindset, and the trust she builds with clients, which is further reinforced by her simultaneously direct and professional approach.
