The second half of 2025 brought the Prague office of Eversheds Sutherland a series of awards, once again confirming its stable position in the legal services market in the Czech Republic.

Eversheds Sutherland excelled in the renowned domestic ranking Právnická firma roku (“Law Firm of the Year”), which was announced on 26 November 2025 at a gala evening in Prague’s Municipal House by Epravo.cz, a.s.

The firm received recognition in several key areas – banking and finance, project development, restructuring and insolvency, and mergers and acquisitions.

For the first time, the ranking also brought individual recognition as Notable Practitioners for Managing Partner Bořivoj Líbal and Partner Dominika Veselá, both awarded for their work in mergers and acquisitions and project development.
