Our Managing Partner Helen Alexiou received the highest number of individual nominations of anyone on the entire EMEA shortlist this year — recognised across three major categories:
-Real Estate – Western Europe
-Thought Leader of the Year – Western Europe
-Outstanding Achievement Award
This recognition reflects the depth and quality of what our team brings to every matter — from complex real estate and concession transactions to cross-border corporate and administrative law.
But beyond the nominations, evenings like this are a reminder of something larger. The women on that shortlist didn't just excel in the law, many of them built the profession as it exists today. They took on the difficult mandates when the rooms weren't always welcoming, mentored the generation behind them without being asked, and quietly redefined what leadership in law looks like. The awards are recognition. The work behind them is the real story.
A heartfelt congratulations to all this year's winners, and to every woman on the shortlist.
Roll on 2027.
