CHSH Cerha Hempel Spiegelfeld Hlawati expands its Contentious Business team with the addition of Dr. Alexander Slana, LL.M. (38).

Dr. Alexander Slana, LL.M. joins the CHSH Contentious Business team headed by Hon.-Prof. Dr. Irene Welser with effect from 1 September 2014. Prior to this, Dr. Slana was an attorney at Wolf Theiss in Vienna.

Born in Klagenfurt, Dr. Slana studied law at the Karl Franzens University of Graz and was awarded an LL.M. after completing a Master's program in "South East European Law and European Integration".

Dr. Slana has many years' experience advising national and international clients and over the years has acquired extensive expertise and now specialises in the fields of (banking) litigation, criminal law and corporate law. Furthermore, Dr. Slana is able to draw on many years' experience as the head of the legal department of an international bank which is why he is extremely well-placed to assess the legal requirements and questions from the client's perspective.

Apart from general litigation, his other main area of practice at CHSH is banking litigation.

"We're extremely pleased that Alexander Slana, a recognised litigation expert, sees his future with us. He will further strengthen the competence of the firm and help drive forward the growth of CHSH", said CHSH partner Hon.-Prof. Dr. Irene Welser.
