Leading market overview
Within Leading market overview,
International firms – namely Allen & Overy Bratislava, s.r.o., Squire Sanders s.r.o. and White & Case – remain go-to choices for high-value deals and cross-border advice, but these players increasingly face competition from the improving international expertise and service levels of local players and spin-offs. Among the most notable local names are Cechová & Partners, Cernejová & Hrbek, Hillbridges, DEDÁK & Partners and Ruzicka Csekes s.r.o.. A number of regional players – including Peterka & Partners, Schoenherr and Wolf Theiss – maintain a presence and provide a mix of Austrian, English, Czech, French and German law advice, often advising on Slovak aspects of CEE or Europe-wide transactions.
