Rymarz Zdort was named the “CEE Legal Adviser of the year”

6 December 2022

At this year’s Mergermarket European Awards Ceremony held on 6 December 2022 in London, Rymarz Zdort was named the “CEE Legal Adviser of the year”.

Mergermarket, an independent mergers and acquisitions intelligence and data service, honours the work of leading law firms and financial advisers across Europe every year. The selection is based on a comprehensive analysis of transaction data from Mergermarket’s M&A deals database with consideration of key criteria such as complexity, structure as well as the groundbreaking and strategic nature of the deals.

“Our stellar reputation for M&A and participation in the most prestigious deals is directly linked to our significant experience and expertise in this field. The M&A Award from Mergermarket is true recognition of the best in the M&A field. We are pleased to have been recognised for our creative advisory work in complex transactions during the annual awards ceremony which was attended by many of the leading financial and legal advisors” – said Paweł Zdort, Managing Partner, Rymarz Zdort.  

Due to the number of transactions on which we have advised, as well as their significance and value, we are a leader of the corporate and M&A practices in Poland. We advised on a total of 19 M&A deals valued at EUR 11.5 billion. In the latest Global and Regional M&A League Tables 3Q2022, Rymarz Zdort was once again the top-ranked legal advisor in Poland and CEE in terms of deal value.

“We at Rymarz Zdort would like to thank all of our clients and business partners for the last 12 months of cooperation and beyond, for their continued trust and for giving us the opportunity to participate in their interesting projects. We would like to express our gratitude to Mergermarket for this award, and to the entire team of Rymarz Zdort for their hard work. We are looking forward to 2023” – concludes Jacek Zawadzki, Partner, Rymarz Zdort.
