Linklaters Named European Law Firm of the Year
09 May 2008
Linklaters was last night crowned European Law Firm of the Year at the inaugural Chambers Europe Awards for Excellence.
The awards, which were held at the Hotel Arts in Barcelona, recognise pre-eminence in key practice areas and notable achievements over the past 12 months, whether this is outstanding work, impressive strategic growth or excellence in client service. They are based on the research conducted for the Chambers Europe directory.
The European Law Firm of the Year Award was presented in recognition of Linklaters' successful handling of complex cross-border work in a range of practice areas. Linklaters was also shortlisted for nine country and regional awards - more than any other firm.
Jean-Marc Lefèvre, European managing partner at Linklaters, said:
"This is a tremendous accolade, which recognises the outstanding quality of our people across Europe and our cutting-edge advice on many of the most complex, cross border and strategically important deals in the region."
