Jipyong has been providing specialized legal advice for clients regarding Central and Eastern Europe, addressing their specific needs with our expertise since 2010. In 2024, we expanded the Central and Eastern Europe Team into the Central and Eastern Europe Center, offering specialized legal advisory services focused on the region.
Jipyong decided Hungary as our Central and Eastern European center, and has built strong partnerships with a wide range of professional organizations, including Hungarian law firms, accounting firms, technology advisory firms, and consulting firms. These collaborations are designed to help our client navigate entry into the Central and Eastern European market with reduced risk and to offer legal advisory services that support the expansion of business opportunities.
In October 2024, Jipyong opened an office in Budapest, Hungary, through a strategic partnership with Oppenheim Law Firm, one of the largest and most prestigious law firms in Hungary, and established a Korea desk in Budapest staffed with a Korean attorney. Through this office, Jipyong, from both Hungary and Korea, provides prompt and cost-effective legal advice tailored to the needs of clients across Central and Eastern Europe.
