Law firm Kavčič, Bračun & Partners (KBP)

What Law firm Kavčič, Bračun & Partners (KBP) does

Kavčič, Bračun & Partners (KBP) is a full-service commercial law firm headquartered in Ljubljana, Slovenia, founded in 2009. Operated by Managing Partners Matej Kavčič and Simon Bračun, the firm employs 17 people, of whom approximately 14 are fee-earning lawyers supported by three business secretaries. KBP delivers legal advice across 16 practice areas spanning M&A, Capital Markets, Banking & Finance, Arbitration, ESG, Data Protection and Cybersecurity, Competition, Dispute Resolution, and Insolvency, serving as a one-stop commercial counsel for corporate clients operating in Slovenia and the broader Adriatic/SEE region.

The firm's business model follows the classic professional services structure: hourly and engagement-based legal fees billed to corporate clients, with revenue generated from a portfolio of ongoing advisory mandates and discrete transactional matters. KBP publicly names premium clients including a leading Serbian bank and a global payment and technology company, indicating an enterprise-grade client base. The firm is a founding member of the Adriala legal network, which connects 450+ lawyers across 12 jurisdictions, enabling KBP to participate in cross-border mandates that exceed its domestic footprint. Distribution of legal services is driven by partner relationships, directory reputation, and inbound referrals from Adriala network partners.

KBP holds external validation from Chambers, Legal 500, and IFLR1000, and has been shortlisted for the Legal 500 CEE Awards 2025 and the CEE Legal Matters Deal of Year 2025. As a private partnership, the firm does not disclose revenue, headcount growth, or fundraising activity, limiting financial visibility. The combination of legal directory recognition, network participation, and expansion into ESG and data protection practices suggests a deliberate positioning in the premium tier of Slovenian commercial law.
