Sorainen has announced that the Belarus Ministry of Justice has named the firm's Minsk office the “Best Provider of Legal Services in Belarus” for the third time.

The annual award is based on criteria such as number of qualified legal personnel, clients serviced in 2013, volume of services rendered in attracting foreign investment to Belarus, turnover and taxes paid, media activity, and absence of client complaints. According to a firm press release, Sorainen remains the only office of a European law firm ever to receive this recognition.

Belarus Managing Partner Kiryl Apanasevich was delighted at the news. "We are pleased to receive this award from the Ministry of Justice for the third time, as it proves our consistent leadership in the Belarusian market. We are grateful to our clients and team members who made this recognition possible." 

Editorial Update (June 3, 2014): Egorov Puginsky Afanasiev & Partners announced that it had won a similar award reported by CEE Legal Matters here. When contacted, Dennis Turovets explained that "the Ministry of Justice may issue the award in question not to one but several law firms, which has been the case with our law firm and Sorainen."
