Harald Strahberger has joined Kinstellar as Partner in Vienna.
According to the firm, Strahberger's addition "strengthens our public law and regulatory capabilities, further enhancing the firm’s expertise in Austria and across the wider Central and Eastern European region."
Prior to joining Kinstellar, Strahberger was with Wolf Theiss, first as an Attorney at Law between 2020 and 2022 and then as a Counsel between 2022 and 2025. Earlier, he worked for Heid und Partner as an Attorney at Law between 2019 and 2020, as well as for BPV Hugel as an Attorney at Law between 2017 and 2019, and with EY Law - Pelzmann Gall as an Attorney at Law between 2016 and 2017. Earlier still, he had another stint with BPV Huegel, as an Associate between 2010 and 2015 and an Attorney at Law between 2015 and 2016.
Kinstellar launched its Vienna office this year, with former Wolf Theiss Partner Horst Ebhardt at its helm (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on January 6, 2025) and the office was joined by Philipp Kapl as Partner shortly thereafter (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on February 7, 2025).
"We are delighted to welcome Harald to Kinstellar," said Firm Managing Partner Kristof Ferenczi. "His deep regulatory expertise, particularly in energy and environmental law, combined with his strong public law experience, will be a significant asset to our firm and our clients."
"I am excited to join Kinstellar at this essential moment, as the firm sets up its footprint in Austria," added Strahberger. "Kinstellar’s regional reach and dynamic approach provide an excellent platform for delivering strategic legal counsel in complex regulatory matters. I look forward to contributing to the firm’s growth and working alongside a talented team to support our clients in Austria and the wider region."
