Professional Background & Qualifications

Tomáš serves as a partner and head of the M&A, corporate & private equity practice at JŠK, where he has led high value M&A and fund related mandates since becoming a partner in 2014. His practice reflects more than two decades of cross border transactional work and domestic market leadership.
