We are now accepting submissions for ALB North Asia's Top 15 Litigators 2024.

The submission deadline is 26 July 2024

Overview

While the economic recovery faces multiple challenges as the pandemic gradually started to fade away, increased disputes risk remains a major concern with the emerging issues of supply chain disruptions, digital transformation, evolving ESG considerations and more.   

 As one of the most dynamic and fastest growing regions in the world, the legal landscape of North Asia has continually evolved in response to such demands and changing circumstances, where some of the best lawyers in the markets have delivered outstanding performance.

ALB is pleased to launch our North Asia’s Top 15 Litigators 2024, to be announce in the ALB Asia Magazine’s October 2024 issue. The ranking celebrates the leading litigators and most impactful disputes across the region of North Asia.

Profile of cases handled, clients’ recommendations, the use of technology and innovation will be taken into consideration when making the assessment. ALB will draw information from the nominations provided, interviews, editorial resources, and market feedbacks to identify the top 15 litigators in the North Asia region.

We look forward to receiving your nominations soon.
