Austria: Schoenherr wins "Law Firm of the Year: Austria" award from The Lawyer

Schoenherr was recognised as "Law Firm of the Year: Austria" for 2021 by the renowned legal publisher The Lawyer. The winners were announced in the digital awards ceremony held on 1 December.

"Being awarded the accolade of leading law firm in Austria by The Lawyer emphasises the exceptional teamwork I see in our offices every day. These extraordinary efforts are standard across our 15 offices, and this award underlines our prowess in the market", said Managing Partner Michael Lagler. "Congratulations to our Austrian teams on this award – one that joins the recent 'Austria Law Firm of the Year' award by Chambers, and also to our international colleagues who are an integral part of this success."

Schoenherr advised on a broad range of headline matters in Austria and Central and Eastern Europe during the past twelve months, covering various legal areas as well as jurisdictions.

To name some highlight matters:

  • Starwood Capital Group on the successful public takeover of VSE-listed CA Immobilien Anlagen AG with target value of EUR 4.3bln;
  • the lenders on the EUR 300m Austrian Airlines rescue financing;
  • S IMMO AG on the acquisition of the "Zagrebtower" office complex from CA Immobilien Anlagen AG; and
