International law firm CMS has been awarded Law Firm of the Year in Hungary at the coveted Chambers Europe Awards 2022, held on 22 April in Madrid.
The Chambers Europe Awards recognise a law firm’s pre-eminence in the country. It also reflects achievements over the past 12 months including outstanding work, impressive strategic growth and excellence in client service. It honours the work of national and international law firms across the region based on the research for the recent edition of Chambers Europe.
Commenting on the firm’s recognition in Hungary Erika Papp, Managing Partner for CMS in Hungary, said: “It’s fantastic to be named as this year’s leading law firm in Hungary for the second consecutive year. We are pleased to have supported our clients on some of the market’s most significant financial sector transactions, including advising German Commerzbank AG on the sale of its subsidiary, HYPO-BANK BURGENLAND on the sale of Sopron Bank, and Corvinus Plc. on the acquisition of Aegon Hungary General Insurance Plc. and Union VIG Insurance Plc. We also pride ourselves in offering innovative managed legal services out of the country, providing global support to some of the largest global companies. We are delighted that Chambers has recognised our market-leading position and unwavering commitment to our clients.”
This recognition follows the firm’s win at the 2021 CIJ Awards in Hungary, where it was also awarded “Law firm of the Year” for its standout work in the Real Estate sector.
The firm has also been awarded in Poland at the Chambers Europe Awards 2022 and was shortlisted in the Law Firm of the Year categories for CEE and in the Pro Bono: Outstanding Firm category for its work in Hungary.
