February 2025 – Kinstellar is pleased to announce that Sebastian Reiter, a highly regarded competition and dispute resolution lawyer, has joined the firm’s Vienna office as a Partner. His arrival further strengthens Kinstellar’s Austrian team, expands its competition capabilities, and enhances the firm’s ability to deliver full-service legal advice in Austria.
Sebastian advises clients on Austrian and EU competition law, Austrian foreign direct investment (FDI) control, and regulatory matters across various sectors. He also represents clients in complex disputes, including civil litigation and arbitrations. Sebastian joins Kinstellar from a leading Austrian law firm and brings broad experience gained across top-tier practices over the course of his career.
He is consistently recognised by international legal directories

experience” and note that his “ability to
foresee and mitigate potential legal risks has been instrumental in
securing favourable outcomes,” adding that his
“strategic insights and collaborative spirit are greatly
appreciated.”
We are delighted to welcome Sebastian to Kinstellar. His appointment further enhances our offering in Austria. As our Vienna office continues to grow, his leadership and experience will be invaluable in supporting clients on the Austrian market and across the wider CEE region.
