Who has time for summer? Not the CEELM team, to some of the team members' disgruntlement! Not allowing ourselves to be swayed by the summer's lazy pace, we've been busy and are excited to share with you a double launch!
First, the special August issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine is out today. Subscribers will be receiving their hard copies soon and, because it is a special edition of the magazine, the electronic version of the issue is also publicly available online here and here in pdf format. Why is it special? Well, it's an issue celebrating the deals that won the 2020 Deals of the Year awards.
Second, we're excited to introduce you to the CEELM Firm Pages compendium – an index of 2,475 law offices from across the CEE region – big or small, ranked or not ranked, in multiple cities in each jurisdiction. While this is the result of months of research, the searchable electronic tables and the pdf version of the report will be updated quarterly, with an open call to all who, for whatever reason, are not already listed, to use this form to request any edits to the index.
The August 2021 issue includes:
- Across the Wire: Deals and Cases in CEE
- On the Move: New Homes and Friends
- The Buzz in CEE
