On 18 April 2016, Rzeczpospolita published its latest ranking of law firms and, for the fifth time in a row, Dentons came in on top in three key categories. Dentons is the number one law firm in Poland by revenue, by the total number of lawyers, and by the number of qualified lawyers.

Our competitors also nominated Dentons as the leader in the following areas:

• Tax law
• Public procurement law, with an individual recommendation for Aldona Kowalczyk

Once again Dentons was pronounced the leader in Real Estate and Energy, and the heads of these two practices - Paweł Dębowski and Arkadiusz Krasnodębski – have been named the undisputed leaders in their respective fields.

The jury has also recognized Dentons’ work on the major transactions on the Polish market in 2015 in three categories: Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A), Capital Markets – Debt and Real Estate.
