BGI Legal Dominates EMEA Legal 500 2021 with Tier 1 rankings

Once again BGI Legal has been ranked Tier 1 in all four core practice areas covered by the EMEA Legal 500 rankings in Georgia.

Alone amongst local firms BGI was specifically ranked Tier 1 in Banking and Finance, Commercial, Corporate and M&A, Dispute Resolution, and Real Estate & Construction.

Lasha Gogiberidze, Zaza Bibilashvili and Sandro Bibilashvili are all included in the elite “Leading Individuals” list.

Unana Gogokhia, George Sarajishvili and Sandro Bibilashvili are further recognized in the “Next Generation Partners” category whilst Davit Kakoishvili and Ekaterina Aleksidze are ranked as “Rising Stars.”  

All in all, seven BGI lawyers have therefore secured a senior ranking in Legal 500 which is more than any other Georgian law firm.

The Legal 500 series provides a qualitative assessment of work conducted over the last 12 months, experience and depth of teams as well as input from 300,000 clients globally from whom the researchers obtain feedback on which law firms meet the criteria required by today’s in-house counsel and business leaders. 

All of this is used to benchmark each law firm against competitors in the practice area in question.

We would like to thank our clients for taking part in the research and for their confidence in and commitment to BGI Legal.
