Milán Kohlrusz

I am an Of Counsel in the Dispute Resolution team of the Budapest office. Over the past 20 years, I have been involved in hundreds of litigation and arbitration cases and have also developed extensive expertise in pharma law and aviation law.

I focus on (i) administrative, commercial and civil law litigation, as well as complex international and domestic arbitration; (ii) pharma law representing pharma companies in all matters; and (iii) aviation law including both airside and landside operations.

Clients also benefit from my significant experience in white collar matters, and my proven track record in the resolution of sensitive conflicts with governmental bodies.

I have advised and successfully represented pharmaceutical companies in marketing campaigns, negotiations with the Hungarian Pharmaceutical Authorization (OGYÉI) and subsidy negotiation with the state.

With regard to aviation law, I provided legal advice to Budapest Airport, the operating company in charge of Hungary's national airport, in a diverse range of complex matters, while I have also worked for Celebi Ground Handling at Budapest Airport in certain disputes with the State and external suppliers.

I am a lecturer at the Faculty of Law of Eötvös Loránd University, where I teach International Commercial Arbitration to foreign students.

Before joining Bird & Bird, I worked as partner at leading international law firms where I managed a team of 6-10 persons.

I speak English in addition to my native Hungarian.
