'Twas the hustle before Christmas, (submission) deadlines abound,

As we flip through the pages of time, CEE Legal Matters is not just celebrating another year – but its 10th Anniversary. Exactly 10 years ago, on December 19, 2013, we published our first news item and, after that, it’s been quite a ride. In this extra special December 2023 issue, we’re taking a stroll down legal memory lane, checking out how things have evolved in the last 10 years, and looking into our crystal ball for some predictions for the upcoming decade.

As 2023 draws to a close and we take time to reflect on the year’s experiences and set our sights on the future, our November issue of the CEE Legal Matters Magazine – a special focus on the northernmost part of CEE – brings a sense of the holiday season well in advance.
