Lahky obtained his Degree in Law in 2010 from the Trnavksa University in Slovakia, then joined Barger Prekop the next year.
"I am delighted to welcome Matus to the partnership," said Brager Prekop Co-Founder Roman Prekop. "I started working with Matus in 2008 and ever since he has been proving to be a generational talent, a down-to-earth lawyer, and a team player. His qualities as a human being allowed him to reach the point when he is equally admired by his colleagues and clients. Matus has gradually become a true leader in energy, compliance, and competition matters, capable of top performance in other areas as well, such as M&A and private equity. We are proud to see his growth and we see him becoming a key player in the legal market of the coming decade."
As new Head of Compliance, Lahky will lead a team of three lawyers, focusing on a range of matters, from traditional energy sector compliance to privacy and the pending artificial intelligence regulation.
