Gabriele Hucklenbruch recently honored with the Award “Hidden Champion Contract Law 2016-2017”.

The award is the result of a study that was initiated by the German Federal Association of In-House Lawyers, the voice of German in-house lawyers, the name of which is “Kanzleimonitor” (which can be translated monitor of law offices).

The study “Kanzleimonitor” is designed to facilitate an overview over the legal market and to this means makes visible the external lawyers  who are recommended by company lawyers. 827 companies participated in the study and responded to a detailed questionnaire and interviews held in personal meetings. The study is expressly not meant to advertise any law firms or lawyers and does not have an economic impact. The category “Hidden Champion” solely lists law firms and lawyers that show a high ratio for the relation between “issued recommendations to qualified professionals”.
