NEW YORK – April 10, 2017 – The Warsaw office of international law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP received the prestigious Chambers Europe “Law Firm of the Year Award for Poland” at the Chambers Europe 2017 Awards Ceremony in London. This is the third time the Warsaw team was awarded this prestigious title in addition to the “Law Firm of the Year for Client Service Award” in 2016.
Lejb Fogelman, the Warsaw office's Senior Partner, commented, "For over 25 years we have been at the forefront of the corporate, banking and finance world in Poland. This prestigious Chambers award affirms our strength in the ability to identify legal trends and the related needs of its clients - we do not react to the status quo but anticipate the changes in the market and adjust our practices accordingly.”
Jarosław Grzesiak, Warsaw’s Managing Partner, remarked, "In the past 12 months, our Warsaw office has assisted leading international and domestic clients on most of the largest and most complex transactions and disputes handled in Poland and in the CEE. The significant expansion of our real estate and litigation teams and the recent enhancement of the labor and employment practice places us in a unique position among our peers in this very competitive and demanding market.”
According to Chambers and Partners, publisher of Chambers Europe and other guides to legal service providers globally, the Chambers Law Firm of the Year Awards honor the work of national and international law firms across Europe based on research for the upcoming edition of Chambers Europe.
