Global law firm Dentons has been awarded “Law Firm of the Year in Eastern Germany“ at the JUVE Awards 2017. The awards ceremony took place last night at the Alte Oper (“Old Opera”) in Frankfurt.

Andreas Ziegenhagen, Germany Managing Partner, commented: “Over the last few years, we have invested in talent to improve both the depth of our offering and the quality of our services. This award shows that our ambitious strategy for Dentons in Germany is working.”

Stephan Busch, Berlin Managing Partner, added: “We are grateful for this award, which is a testament to the quality legal advice which our team in Berlin has delivered over the last year.”

The annual JUVE Awards honor the development and management performance of law firms in Germany. The evaluation criteria include client orientation, firm culture, recruitment policy, profitability, personal growth, as well as expansion into new fields of business or new markets.

Earlier this year, Dentons was named “International Firm of the Year” at The Lawyer Awards 2017 and “Europe Law Firm of the Year” at the Chambers Europe Awards 2017. The Firm also moved up to the top 10 law firms worldwide in this year’s Acritas Global Elite Law Firm Brand Index.
