Who’s Who Legal has once again selected SyCip Salazar Hernandez & Gatmaitan (SyCipLaw) as the leading firm in the Philippines in its annual awards. The firm was named Philippines Law Firm of the Year 2012, the seventh consecutive occasion that it has gained this recognition.
The award is based exclusively on the findings of an independent six-month research process that encompasses feedback from private practitioners, clients and other experts in the sector. It is impossible to buy entry into Who’s Who Legal, only lawyers who score most highly according to our independent international research criteria are listed.
Partners from the firm in Philippines received sufficient nominations from their clients and peers to be listed 11 times across 11 practice areas in the publication. Lawyers from SyCipLaw were listed more times than those from any other firm in the country.
Editor in chief Callum Campbell said, “The strong performance of so many lawyers from SyCip Salazar Hernandez & Gatmaitan underlines the depth of expertise the firm can offer across a range of areas, and we are delighted to recognise the firm once again as the leader in Philippines.”
