In this year’s competition organised by CIJ (Construction and Investment Journal) Europe, a leading provider of online and print real estate news, HAVEL & PARTNERS was ranked as the best law firm in the Czech Republic in this practice area. This is yet another success for the firm’s dedicated real estate team after HAVEL & PARTNERS was awarded in the category of real estate and development projects in the Czech Law Firm of the Year competition this November.

“Our specialised team has been helping clients in the real estate and construction industry to manage their business affairs since 2001, and is one of the largest and most experienced in the Czech market. Thanks to our exceptional know-how and breadth of contacts, we are able to provide our clients with truly comprehensive care for their real estate portfolios, so to speak, from A to Z. We assist them in all phases of project implementation. We provide advisory services ranging from the preparation and permitting of projects, including construction law or engineering, to complete construction with all related contracts and, of course, we also handle transactions involving real estate of all types. We also support our clients in terms of real estate portfolio management, tax obligations, and litigation where necessary,” said partner Martin Ráž regarding the range of the firm’s services.

The real estate legal advisory services are handled by a total of over 30 lawyers, including 8 partners. The jurors of the CIJ Awards, an independent group of top real estate professionals, recognised HAVEL & PARTNERS in particular for its outstanding performance in the provision of legal services in this area.

The CIJ Awards gala took place on Thursday, 30 November at the Prague Marriott Hotel. This year, the award was presented for the twenty-third time in the Czech Republic.
