We're late. Trust us: we know it. But don't worry: The special August 2019 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine — our semi-annual CEE By The Numbers report — is well worth the wait!
This report is our third, allowing us to compare the gradual transformation of CEE's legal markets over time. Thus, the report, which our subscribers can read now (here), provides a fascinating snapshot of how the various legal markets are changing, revealing a larger-than-ever number of ranked law firms across the region and a growing numbers of lawyers working in those law firms. It also analyzes the number and percentage of female lawyers -- both associates and partners -- in CEE's leading law firms (the results may surprise you), and much, much more.
In addition, Managing Editor Radu Cotarcea has kindly agreed to provide additional numbers regarding the collection of data for this issue, which involved:
- thorough review of 941 law firm websites over 24 markets, which necessitated
- three solid weeks of work, including
- 4 sleepless nights, involving
- 9 energy drinks
- 5 glasses of whiskey
- 13 shots of Jägermeister
- 7 beers
- countless coffees
- 2319 e-mails exchanged
- 407 firms writing to correct the information on their own websites
