It is our great pleasure to inform you that the preeminent industry programme for recognising the achievements of emerging leaders in the practice of law, the Rising Stars Awards, is returning for 2022!
As we have in previous years, the Awards will be working closely with our supporting legal benchmarking and rankings teams in order to best recognise the top emerging talent from across the Americas, Asia-Pacific (APAC), and Europe Middle East Africa (EMEA) in a wide array of practice area specialisms.
In order to be given consideration, the research team has developed several channels for firms and in-house teams to promote their outstanding juniors to us for recognition. First and foremost, we highly recommend engaging with our associated benchmarking and rankings teams at Benchmark Litigation, IFLR1000, IP Stars, and World Tax / World Transfer Pricing. Secondly, we encourage engaging with the Expert Guides and their Rising Stars publication. Finally, we will release a submissions form and portal where nominees can be sent directly to the awards.
