Having already been delighted in the spring by the <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/blog\/capital-top-law-firm-criminal-law\/\">recommendation by the <strong>business magazine Capital<\/strong><\/a>, the new awards from <strong>JUVE<\/strong>, <strong>FOCUS-Business<\/strong> and the <strong>F.A.Z.-Institut<\/strong> confirm our commitment to quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>JUVE: Continued recommendation and distinct strength in advising companies on criminal law<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The leading specialist magazine for the business law market, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juve.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">JUVE<\/a>, has once again renewed its long-standing recommendation of Dr. Oliver Pragal this year, recognising him as an accomplished white-collar criminal lawyer. The current ranking particularly highlights Pragal Rechtsanw\u00e4lte\u2019s strong market profile in advising companies on criminal law and in the strategic handling of compliance cases and internal investigations. The JUVE editors also emphasise the firm\u2019s successful development: with the addition of <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/lawyers\/maximilian-koch\/\">Salary Partner Maximilian Koch<\/a> in white-collar and <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/competencies\/criminal-defence\/corporate-tax-criminal-law\/\">tax criminal law<\/a> and the expertise of <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/lawyers\/kristina-konrad\/\">Kristina Konrad<\/a> in the compliance practice, the firm has gained valuable new facets. While founder Dr. Pragal is frequently recommended by competitors as \u201cthoughtful and collegial\u201d, the firm \u2013 alongside its growing presence on the corporate side \u2013 remains a strong and reliable partner in traditional individual defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>FOCUS-Business: Top placement in the national ranking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the specialist legal press, the major business magazines also confirm the outstanding market position of the Hamburg boutique firm. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.focus.de\/business\/wirtschaftskanzleien\/suche\/wirtschaftsstrafrecht\/hamburg\">FOCUS-Business<\/a> magazine lists our team among the leading top firms in <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/competencies\/criminal-defence\/commercial-criminal-law\/\">white-collar criminal law<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This award also reflects the success of our expanded team. With attorney Maximilian Koch joining as Salary Partner in white-collar and tax criminal law, and the established expertise of Salary Partner Kristina Konrad in the <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/competencies\/compliance\/\">compliance<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/competencies\/internal-investigations\/\">internal investigations<\/a> practice, the firm offers holistic, strategically aligned advice that combines business acumen with litigation experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">F.A.Z. Institut: Recognised as a \u201cTop Anwalt\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This series of awards is complemented by the <a href=\"https:\/\/topanwalt.faz.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">F.A.Z.-Institut<\/a>, which names Dr. Oliver Pragal a \u201cTop Anwalt\u201d (top lawyer). This award is based largely on the high number of positive expert recommendations and underlines the firm\u2019s reputation in white-collar <a href=\"https:\/\/pragal-rechtsanwaelte.de\/en\/competencies\/criminal-defence\/individual-defence\/\">individual defence<\/a> and crisis prevention. As this survey is based on sound market data and peer recommendations, we see the award as valuable confirmation of our professional excellence and our reputation in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Thank you to our clients, colleagues and team for their trust<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Achieving these positions confirms our daily commitment to the interests and rights of our clients. We would like to thank our clients warmly for their trusting cooperation and our colleagues in the market for their positive feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Special thanks are, of course, also due to our entire team, who help to shape this high standard with great dedication every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The standard of excellent legal advice and defence in complex white-collar criminal proceedings and sensitive compliance crises is measured above all by two factors: legal precision and passionate representation of clients\u2019 interests.
