Allen Overy Shearman Sterling Counsel Attila Csongrady is set to join Schoenherr as Partner alongside Peter Redo, who will join as Counsel, effective September 1, 2025.
Csongrady has been with A&O Shearman since 2014 and with DLA Piper between 2013 and 2014. Earlier, he worked for Freshfields as a Principal Associate between 2006 and 2009 and as a Counsel between 2009 and 2013. Earlier still, he was a Senior Associate with A&O Shearman's legacy firm Allen & Overy between 2000 and 2006.
"Attila and Peter's arrival adds a distinct and highly sought-after English law capability to our CEE banking practice that will enhance our ability to support clients operating in and into the region, working closely alongside our established international network and valued referral partners," said Partner and Head of Schoenherr's Banking, Finance & Capital Markets Group Matei Florea. "Their arrival underscores Schoenherr's position as the go-to firm for complex, cross-border finance work in the CEE region."
