Robert Nešpůrek, one of the founding partners of the law firm HAVEL & PARTNERS, was the only one from Central and Eastern Europe in his category to be included in the list WWL Thought Leaders: Global Elite 2024, published by the prestigious rating organisation Who´s Who Legal.
“Telecommunications and media have been evolving at a truly frantic pace globally. Being on the cutting edge of legal advice in these fields means, among other things, that you must make sure you are constantly up to date with upcoming trends and innovations and know your clients’ needs in this respect. That is why I truly appreciate this extraordinary award, which was achieved by only 17 attorneys in this field from all over the world,” said Robert Nespůrek, the only representative of the CEE region in the areas concerned.
Robert Nešpůrek is one of the founding partners of HAVEL & PARTNERS and is the head of the firm’s team focusing on technology & commercial law, IP law, and telecommunications law.

With 40 lawyers, the HAVEL & PARTNERS dedicated group is one of the largest legal teams in the Czech Republic in the areas of IT, IP, e-commerce, film and gaming, digitalisation and data law.

WWL Thought Leaders: Global Elite 2024 is an extensive global database of outstanding professionals covering a range of other legal areas in addition to competition law, telecommunications and media. It is published by the well-known rating organisation Who’s Who Legal, sponsored by the renowned company Lexology.
The rankings are compiled independently based on the company’s own research, an assessment of information provided by law firms, and interviews Lexology annually conducts with attorneys in the relevant jurisdictions. The awards are tiered, with the Global Elite Thought Leader being the most prestigious one to which only a very small fraction of the attorneys rated qualify.
