Following a thorough research period which included analysis of direct submissions and much deliberation, MPR|Partners has been shortlisted within the Women in Business Law Awards EMEA 2023, for Eastern Europe Firm of the Year Award.

Currently at their eighth edition, the Women in Business Law Awards celebrate the most ground-breaking achievements by the region's leading female lawyers as well as the most progressive law firms and in-house teams in terms of their gender policies, advocacy, and support of women in the practice of law.

Supported by IFLR (International Financial Law Review), ITR (International Tax Review) and Benchmark Litigation (brands part of the Euromoney portfolio, now rebranded as “Delinian”), the Women in Business Law Awards aim to honour women in the forefront of legal work in business law and those firms that have produced initiatives and programmes to support and encourage women and diversity within the industry.

According to the officials with regards to the research and nomination process, a dedicated research team then conducts a series of peer review interviews – face-to-face and over the phone – with leading female practitioners across multiple areas of law and jurisdictions verifying much of the information provided. The team equally incorporates other research from within the group in order to further refine the results i.e. magazine survey results / directory analysis, etc.

“We are very happy with this recognition and we are proud of being shortlisted. Our entire team and our clients take full advantage of the fact that we have developed strong innovative practices and projects that highlight gender diversity. Since we have founded the firm, almost a decade ago, we have been constantly encouraging the growth of women talent. I look forward to attending the awards ceremony in London.” Alina Popescu, Founding Partner MPR Partners and MPR Partners LLP
