In the current ‘Handbuch Österreich 2024/2025’ (Austrian Handbook 2024/2025) published by the JUVE Verlag, GPK Pegger Kofler & Partners is once again one of the leading commercial law firms in the country in the areas of Corporate Law and M&A (mergers & acquisitions).
According to the following JUVE evaluation, their law firm is considered one of the ‘most respected’ and ‘market-defining units’ in Western Austria. They are particularly pleased to be able to build on their established top position in the ranking this year by improving their position in Corporate Law and continuing to excel in the M&A sector:
‘In western Austria, this Innsbruck-based law firm is one of the most respected, strongest in terms of its personnel, and most influential in the market […]. Accordingly, the practice is an active partner for local businesses in corporate law matters and transactions. Clients include companies from the regionally strongly represented tourism industry, from the trade sector as well as start-ups, IT companies and investors. The topics that GPK deals with are just as broad as its client portfolio. In the start-up environment, the consultants gained initial experience with the new FlexCo company form. Andrea Pegger advised on the establishment of a corresponding company, including the participation of international investors in a start-up for the recycling of building materials. More recently, Franz Pegger’s advice to several ecclesiastical legal entities on various topics, in which Canon Law played a role, was particularly noteworthy. Often recommended: Prof Dr Franz Pegger (‘excellent in commercial law’, client), Barbara Egger-Russe, Andrea Pegger (‘professional and fast’, client) […].’
Special thanks go to their partners Franz Pegger, Barbara Egger-Russe and Andrea Pegger, who is highlighted in the JUVE Handbook for the first time. They would like to congratulate them on this success!
The often long-standing trust of their clients encourages us to continue to actively tackle new challenges in the future and thus help shape the Austrian legal market in the long term.
The JUVE Handbook of Commercial Law Firms is regarded as the authoritative reference work for the German-speaking legal market. The rankings are based on comprehensive research among law firms and experts from the judiciary and academia as well as detailed analyses by JUVE Verlag.
Congratulations to all those of their colleagues who were recognised by JUVE Verlag!
