Bell Gully has been named the Who's Who Legal Law Firm of the Year for New Zealand for the second consecutive year.
Based on nominations received from clients and other practitioners, Who's Who Legal has identified pre-eminent firms in 48 countries to receive their country's award. The results have just been published in The International Who's Who of Business Lawyers 2007.
Who's Who editor-in-chief Callum Campbell says: "It is an outstanding achievement to win for a second time. Bell Gully’s continuing success demonstrates its consistent and unparalleled level of individual and collective talent. We have no hesitation in declaring Bell Gully the leading firm in New Zealand."
Who's Who Legal lists only the leading practitioners in each field, based exclusively on the findings for a six-month independent research process.
"Partners from the firm received sufficient nominations from their clients and peers to be listed 11 times across nine practice areas in the publication. The firm had more practitioners included than any other firm in the country."
