LEXELLENT is The Lawyer’s Italian Law Firm of the Year 2016
LEXELLENT is the Winner of the Italian Law Firm of the Year 2016 award – which was presented to the firm by the UK based The Lawyer magazine during a gala ceremony in London on March 9th, 2016.
Lexellent was the only Italian boutique law firm shortlisted for this award. The other finalists included notable multi-practice heavyweights: Chiomenti, Gianni Origoni Grippo Cappelli & Partners, Grimaldi, Legance, NCTM, and Portolano Cavalo (which was Highly Recommended in this category).
In the words of the jury, composed of notable professionals and general counsel from leading firms and businesses, LEXELLENT was presented with this accolade for the following merits:
Employment boutique LEXELLENT stands out for a lively, unusual strategy which is focused on not only delivering top-quality labour law advice but also setting out to change employment law in Italy.
The firm celebrates its fifth anniversary this year, after its foundation through a spin-off from Eversheds, and continues to grow, with a solid revenue rise backed up by a new team in Rome. Clients include a list of household global and Italian names as well as senior executives looking for employment advice.
But what really made the judges sit up this year was LEXELLENT’s commitment to diversity. The firm established a diversity practice which is advising and educating clients on the importance of diversity, with a particular focus on LGBT issues, with a view to changing the attitude of Italian companies to diversity.
Judges praised LEXELLENT’s “bold” strategy and its attention to culture and social responsibility.
