HONG KONG, September 12, 2024 – For the second consecutive time, Ravenscroft & Schmierer, a leading Hong Kong law firm, has been recognised as a ‘notable’ firm in asialaw’s 2024 ranking. As in 2023, the 2024 recognition was again awarded in two practice areas, being ‘Dispute Resolution’ and ‘Corporate and M&A’. The ranking is based on extensive research and feedback from clients and peers in the legal industry.
The asialaw ranking is one of the most prestigious and authoritative guides to the best law firms and lawyers in Asia-Pacific. It covers 25 jurisdictions and 18 practice areas, and evaluates firms based on their work evidence, client feedback, and peer feedback.
With utmost regard for the dedicated work of its team and for the trust and support from its clients, Ravenscroft & Schmierer celebrates the recognition. The firm notes proudly that for a second year in a row, its dedication to serving its clients in APAC and Europe with professionalism and expertise is reflected in this ranking. Sustaining its strong track record of handling complex and high-profile cases in various fields of law, such as commercial litigation, arbitration, mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, intellectual property, and more.
The firm is thankful to its long-term clients for continuing to have Ravenscroft & Schmierer by their sides, as well as to all new clients who placed their confidence in the firm. It remains committed to providing the best legal solutions and services to its clients, and to maintaining its reputation as a leading law firm in the region.
Upon learning about the news, Managing Partner Stefan Schmierer exclaimed that “…the competition in the legal industry in Hong Kong and globally is at an all-time high and receiving this second recognition from asialaw in a row, is testament to our team and how we place adding value to the client at the top of our list. We realise there is a lot of choice out there, but for our clients to choose or remain with us, while at the same time providing such positive feedback to the ranking, fills me with pride and gratitude for our firm and the work we have put into it since 2020.”
Partner Anna Lau’s reaction: “Last year, upon learning about our first ranking, I saw it as a fine boost to our ambitions and our momentum. Through this second ranking I can see that not only have we been able to sustain and grow our ambition, we have been able to maintain our momentum as well; which to be frank is quite a feat in Hong Kong’s competitive legal environment at the moment. A deep thanks to our clients and to our team, well done!”
