It is with great pleasure that we announce the winners of the 2019 CEE Deal of the Year Awards!

Remember: Only two days left until CEE Legal Matters announces the CEE Deal of the Year Award Winners!

If one item of good news is welcome in these dark times, two items are especially so. Thus, CEE Legal Matters is proud to announce both that the Deal of the Year Awards Banquet and Dealer's Choice International Law Firm Summit, originally scheduled for London on April 23, 2020, have now been rescheduled for October 13, 2020, and that CEELM has moved the date that the CEE Deal of the Year Award winners will be announced up from April 24 to April 1, 2020.

Consistent with our mission to keep lawyers and the greater business community informed of legal developments in the 24 countries of CEE, and cognizant of the dramatic spread of the Covid-19 virus across Europe in recent weeks, CEE Legal Matters is pleased to present the CEELM Covid-19 Comparative Legal Guide: Contracts.

In light of the growing coronavirus crisis, the 2020 Dealer’s Choice International Law Firm Summit and CEE Deal of the Year Awards Banquet, originally scheduled for April 23, 2020, in London, have been postponed. 

As the audience grows quiet with anticipation, the orchestra readies itself, and with a subtle nod from the stage director, the heavy red curtains are slowly pulled back to reveal … is it? Is it? It is!!! The March 2020 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine is here!

Here they are: The 2019 CEE Deal of the Year Awards Shortlists!

The special 2020 Kick-Off issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine is here — and soon it will be there!

All the 2019 Deal of the Year Submissions have been received, organized, placed on ballots, and sent out to various panels across CEE, and the full list of all submissions will appear in — and only in — the February 2020 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine, available only by subscription.

Here it is! The January 2020 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine, specially-delayed in honor of all of our friends celebrating Orthodox Christmas!

As 2019 draws to a close, we provide a look back at the most popular stories — based on the number of clicks and views — that appeared on the CEE Legal Matters website over the past 365 days.

As we escape the wind, ice, and snow

the news on this website will unavoidably slow

You’ll forgive us our need to take a quick rest

Charging the batteries that keep us the best

Okay, you can open one Christmas present early. And … surprise! It’s the December 2019 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine!

The November issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine is, frankly, a little bit late. But good things take time, and trust us, this issue – our annual special Foreign Focus issue, focusing this time on the Rainbow Nation, South Africa – is a good one. And finally, finally, it’s out now!

Roses are red, violets are blue. Hurrah, the issue of CEE Legal Matters is new!

Sure, this summer has been hot. There's no denying it. Sizzling. Too hot to enjoy. But now come the good times. Reasonable temperatures, nice breezes, and cool weather — perfect for grabbing a nice adult beverage, sitting on your deck or on the patio of your favorite watering hole, and reading the September 2019 issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine from front to back. We've done our part ... because the September 2019 issue is out now!

Sponsors of the 2020 Dealer’s Choice Law Firm Summit, which will be held on April 23, 2020 in conjunction with the Deal of the Year Awards Banquet, explain their involvement.

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!
