According to a recent analysis prepared by the consulting company Patria Corporate Finance, the value of the law firm HAVEL & PARTNERS, including the Slovak office and the educational Academy, is around CZK 2.8 billion. The value of the entire group, including also the Cash Collectors collection agency and other specialised entities, was estimated by Patria at more than CZK 3.3 billion. The law firm thus once again confirms its exceptional position on the Central European legal market, which is supported by excellent economic results in the first six months of this year.
The valuation was made by the renowned consulting company Patria Corporate Finance on the basis of income and comparative company valuation methods. As part of the analysis, it determined the total value of the HAVEL & PARTNERS group at CZK 3,327 million as of 31 December 2023. This is more than CZK 1 billion above the valuation from late 2020 (CZK 2,289 million) when the value of the group was last quantified by that company. Moreover, the current valuation was completed before the formation of ONE FAMILY OFFICE, which was officially established on 1 January 2024 and significantly increases the value of the entire group.
“I consider the leap of more than CZK 1 billion in three years to be an extraordinary success for an independent law firm,” said Jaroslav Havel, managing partner of the firm. “The analysis declares our exceptionally strong position on the legal market in the whole of Central Europe. The firm’s continuous economic growth and long-term economic stability are also a confirmation for our clients and business partners that they are working with a maximally trustworthy firm with minimal risk, which is constantly investing in expanding its portfolio of services, innovative technologies and overall development,” he said.
According to the analysis, the high level of the valuation is based on the fact that HAVEL & PARTNERS is the largest independent law firm in Central Europe and has in the long term been the most successful law firm in the Czech Republic and Slovakia in terms of ratings and awards. The firm’s success and excellent reputation are supported by a top-notch legal team with extensive know-how in almost all areas of law and business sectors, a broad portfolio of clients, strategic financial management and marketing, a unique business development and CRM system and synergies within the group.
As the greatest opportunities for the future, the study identifies further intensive integration of legal, tax and economic advisory services, the expansion of the clientele through the recently opened office in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and the close cooperation with ONE FAMILY OFFICE which provides an integrated combination of advisory services for the management and protection of the wealth of wealthy families and individuals.
The exceptional economic condition and successful management of HAVEL & PARTNERS is also confirmed by the Bisnode AAA highest creditworthiness certificate awarded by Dun & Bradstreet, which has consistently ranked the firm among the most stable companies on the market.
