The Lawyers Global® team is pleased to announce the 2022 Annual Legal Awards results for the Continents category, which are now publicly available online on our platform in the Continents Awards directories and on each awarded law firm profile page.
The 2022 edition of the 2022 Annual Legal Awards reflects the market behavior, trends, and moves, and in this case, at the Country, Sub-Regional, and subsequently at the Continent level. The 2022 Global Awards results will be released in the next few days.
New firms have risen to the top. Others moved among the previous positions in the country category and at the continent category, reflecting the legal market dynamics and, to some extent, the pandemics and geopolitical instability effects on the worldwide economy.
The six law firms awarded as Continent Winners are:
- Africa Winner: John W Ffooks & Co.
- Asia Winner: Dentons
- Australasia Winner: Clayton Utz
- Europe Winner: Bird & Bird
- North America Winner: Kirkland & Ellis
- South America Winner: Lopes Pinto, Nagasse Advogados Associados
Congratulations to all 2022 Continent Awarded and ranked Law Firms, to their management, and teams for the excellence demonstrated during these tough times. Their resilience proves that when things get tough, the tough get going.
— Mario P. Proenca, Founder & Managing Partner at The Lawyers Global®
