About Best Lawyers
Best Lawyers is an international legal guide whose recognitions rest on peer review: lawyers assess the work of colleagues practising in the same field. Ones to Watch, published alongside it, recognises lawyers at an earlier stage of their careers.

Several Generations, One Way of Working
This year’s recognitions run from partners who have advised clients for decades to lawyers now building a name of their own. As VCA marks 25 years, that continuity is what we value most: it lets us stay alongside families and businesses over time, with a team that knows each client’s story and looks at every question as a whole.
Our thanks to the peers who took the time to take part. Every name on this list reflects, first and foremost, the work of the whole VCA team.
