Global law firm Dentons has been awarded the prestigious JUVE Award for “Competition Law Firm of the Year” in Germany.
In presenting the award, JUVE particularly emphasized the team’s strong development in recent years: “With skillfully chosen lateral hires and young homegrown talents, Dentons formed a team that impresses clients. […] Jörg Karenfort, the acknowledged head of the practice, cleverly uses the strength of the firm in regulated industries such as energy, health, mobility and payment. He thus focuses the practice on the issues of the future.”
Dr. Jörg Karenfort, Europe and Global Head of the Competition and Antitrust practice group at Dentons, said: “Such an award is like winning a long-distance relay race: it takes a lot of stamina, hard training and a team that is well staffed on all stages. We are very pleased to have earned the trust of our clients and the appreciation of our colleagues.”
Andreas Ziegenhagen, Germany Managing Partner, added: “We are very proud of this award! It underlines the profile we have successfully established in the German market under the Dentons flag in recent years. This is an ideal springboard for our further development and will strengthen us for the future.“
