Rödl & Partner has once again succeeded at the prestigious Law Firm of the Year Awards. For the ninth time in a row, we won the 2020 Law Firm of the Year Award for Tax Law. Rödl & Partner has also been acclaimed as a Highly Recommended Law Firm in Logistics and Transportation Engineering.

Tax law holds a prominent position at Rödl & Partner. It is covered not only by the firm’s lawyers but also by its tax advisors and business consultants. Through this multidisciplinary approach, bringing together professionals with various fields of expertise, Rödl & Partner is able to offer its clients comprehensive solutions that address all legal, business-related and accounting aspects of tax law.

“We are honoured to have been awarded the 2020 Law Firm of the Year Award for Tax Law. It is an unprecedented success. I am very glad that our Firm is one of the best in the field and that the market sees us as experts in tax law, which we have been specialising in since day one. Yet the award brings with it ever increasing commitment and effort on our part. Staying ahead of the game in today’s competitive world of tax law experts will not be easy,” says Petr Novotný, the managing partner of Rödl & Partner.

The overall attention paid to tax law has also been on the rise among lawyers. They have come to realize that tax law, and tax procedure in particular, has come to constitute an important part of Czech law and is no longer a field best left to experts in economics and tax advisors.

Petr Novotný gratefully acknowledges that Rödl & Partner has also been recognised as a Highly Recommended Law Firm in Logistics and Transportation Engineering for the second time in a row.

An expert team of lawyers has been counselling in this practice area for almost 20 years. “It is primarily thanks to our extensive and considerable experience that we are well aware of and clearly understand the specifics, practice and problems that companies involved in logistics have to face on a daily basis. We can provide them with efficient, qualified help and support and consult them in all areas of their business,” explains Alice Kubová Bártková, the team leader.

“We would like to thank our clients for their confidence in our ability to handle even the most complicated tax issues, which has helped us develop and hone our expertise and skills as the premium tax law firm. We would also like to thank our dear colleagues who have not lost their enthusiasm and their devotion to our clients despite the very trying conditions we are facing today. Last but not least, we would like to thank E-pravo.cz for organising the Law Firm of the Year Award ceremony even in these difficult times,” appreciates Monika Novotná, the partner at Rödl & Partner.

The Law Firm of the Year Award was created in 2008 and was inspired by foreign awards ranking legal firms (Chambers Global, PLC, IFLR 1000, Legal 500), which have a longstanding tradition in the West. In the Czech Republic, the award is announced annually by EPRAVO.CZ. This year’s 13th award ceremonies took place under the patronage of the Minister of Justice of the Czech Republic and the Czech Bar Association.
