Every year IFLR (International Financial Law Review) ranks the world's best law firms and in the newly released 2021 rankings BGI Legal has maintained its status as Tier 1 for both practice areas covered by the guide in Georgia - Financial & Corporate and Project Development.  

Four of the firm’s lawyers have once again received prestigious individual rankings.  

Partners Sandro Bibilashvili, Zaza Bibilashvili and Unana Gogokhia are all designated Highly Regarded Leading Lawyers whilst Partner Lasha Gogiberidze wins the premier Leading Lawyer - Market Leader designation.  

Market Leaders are recognised by IFLR as the standout performers in their country or practice area. Out of over 31 IFLR Georgian ranked lawyers, Lasha Gogiberidze is the only lawyer from a local firm to be given the Market Leader classification with just one other Georgian lawyer, working at an international law firm, having a similar designation.  

The IFLR1000 rankings are based on a mix of transactional evidence, peer comment and client feedback.
