The magnificent seven: Rödl & Partner is Czech Law Firm of the Year 2018

Once again, the international professional service firm Rödl & Partner succeeded at the annual award ceremony for the Czech Law Firm of the Year. For the seventh time in a row, Rödl & Partner has become the Czech Law Firm of the Year in the area of Tax Law.

"I feel very honored to have received the 2018 Award, and I am grateful that our colleagues and our clients appreciate our dedication to this area of law, which we have been practicing from day one. Winning such a prestigious award for seven years in a row is an unprecedented success. Besides, it is a mark of public confidence in our continued ability to provide top-ranking tax law consulting services in the future, and therefore requires ever increasing commitment and effort on our part. Staying ahead of the game in today's competitive world will not be easy," says the Managing Partner of Rödl & Partner in the Czech Republic, JUDr. Petr Novotný.

The overall attention given to tax law has been on the rise among attorneys. 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 just a matter at the periphery of their interest, which is best left to the care of economic experts and tax advisors.

"While I expect it is going to be increasingly difficult to compete on this market, we will strive to do our best to rank among the best tax law firms also in future," Petr Novotný concludes.

The Law Firm of the Year Award was created in 2008 and has been 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 award ceremonies took place under the patronage of the Minister of Justice of the Czech Republic,Jan Kněžínek, and the Czech Bar Association.
