With another strong round of promotions across Central Eastern Europe, Schoenherr continues to invest in its people and their expertise, further consolidating its leading position in the region.
Spanning multiple offices and practice areas, the promotions underscore the breadth of Schoenherr's expertise and the appointees' outstanding knowledge in their respective fields. They follow another exceptional year for the firm, including the opening of a liaison office in London and two "Law Firm of the Year" awards by Chambers and Partners. The promotions further reflect Schoenherr's continued commitment to recognising its people's excellence and fostering their professional growth, values that constitute a core pillar of the firm's culture.
The partner promotions will take effect on 1 February 2027. Of the newly appointed counsel, five took up their roles on 1 August 2026, while the remaining 12 appointments will take effect on 1 February 2027.
"This year's round of promotions marks another important step forward for our firm. The dedication, expertise and consistent results demonstrated by these colleagues speak for themselves," said Managing Partner Alexander Popp. "Clients and colleagues alike have come to rely on their judgment and the quality of their work. We are proud to see their contributions recognised in this way and look forward to what the future has in store for them."
