Phase Two: Finalist Ranking

Iberian Legal Group will draw up a list of finalists on the basis of qualitative and quantitative research (which also includes market research among customers and/or prospects and peers) carried out from the time of receipt of submissions to the time of putting the finalist list online.

Third stage: Ranking of the Finalists by the Jury.

Iberian Legal Group will select one name of Associated Legal and Tax Firm and one name of Individual Lawyer and/or Professional that it will propose to the Jury as a candidate for victory in each category, giving reasons for its vote.

The Jury, having received the lists (i.e. ‘Associated Law and Tax Firms’ and ‘Individual Lawyers and/or Professionals’) of the finalists for each of the categories identified and having heard the vote and the motivation of the vote from Iberian Legal Group, through its own vote (a per capita, open vote), will decide the winners to whom to award the prize.

The Jury will be composed of:

Recognized experts, from the corporate world, in the energy sector;
A representative of legalcommunity.it, appointed by Iberian Legal Group (even in the case of more than one representative Iberian Legal Group will have only one vote)
Possible representatives of industry associations.

The Jury will be chaired by the representative of Iberian Legal Group.

The criteria taken into consideration by the Jury for awarding the prizes to the best ‘Law Firm’ finalists will be as follows

Transactions carried out (value and number) during the Activity Reference Period;
Relevant growth factors during the Activity Reference Period (e.g. promotions, entry or exit of new professionals, mergers or acquisitions with other firms or international networks, national or international expansion);
Positioning and image.

The criteria taken into consideration by the Jury for awarding the prizes to the best ‘Individual Professional’ Finalists will be as follows:

Technical, Legal and negotiating skills;
Knowledge of industry-related business dynamics (industry);
Commitment and ability to relate to customers;
Professional reputation among colleagues.

In view of the above-mentioned criteria, it is hereby specified that no overlapping and/or repetition of awards will be possible for natural or legal persons belonging to Associated Legal and Tax Firms already awarded within the same category respectively as Professional or Team of the Year.

ART. 3 – Communication of the finalist projects and award ceremony: the communication of the names of the best Finalists (i.e. ‘Associated Legal and Tax Firms’ and ‘Individual Professionals’ and ‘Industry Protagonists’) for each of the identified categories will be communicated during the Gala Evening of the Forty Under 40 Awards.

Iberian Legal Group reserves the right to promptly communicate to the Participants/Finalists further details regarding the participation and holding of the Gala Evening.

ART. 4 – Formalization and withdrawal of the award: the assignment of the award to the best Finalists (i.e. Associated Legal and Tax Firms and/or Individual Professionals) for each of the identified categories will be formalized by Iberian Legal Group, during the gala evening.

Participation in the event is preferred for the awarding of the recognition, as a sign of respect for the jury. In cases of absolute inability to attend and collect the award, the jury reserves the right to review the situation and may reassign the award if deemed necessary.
