Winners of Iberian Lawyer 2021 Gold Awards announced
The winners of the Iberian Lawyer 2021 Gold Awards were announced during the gala ceremony held at the Wellington hotel
In their V Edition, the Gold Awards recognised, once again, the excellence amongst in-house & Compliance professionals in Spain and Portugal. On this occasion, the Gold Awards were celebrated after the Legalday, which counted on three roundtables and general counsel of relevant companies from Spain and Portugal as prestigious law firms from both countries.
Aldo Scaringella, LC Publishing Group founder and owner, stated that: “The work carried out by Legal Counsel and their in-house teams have a vital role to play in the development of business in any sector. For this reason, today at Iberian Lawyer, we want to recognise their work with the presentation of the Gold Awards.”
The Gold Awards have been granted, taking into account the most important sectors of activity in the economy. In this edition, a total of 38 awards were presented, distinguishing in each category the best legal team and the most outstanding lawyer of the year.
