Handelsblatt

and Best Lawyers award

from

This year, lawyers from KPW are again among the best lawyers in Germany according to Handelsblatt and Best Lawyers.

Best Lawyers and Handelsblatt

The current edition of the Best Lawyers and Handelsblatt rankings again honors attorneys who have distinguished themselves in their respective fields through special expertise and a strong professional reputation. The selection is not based on a traditional application process, but on a peer review procedure: In other words, other lawyers are asked to assess which colleagues they would recommend on the basis of their professional performance.

The procedure is thus based on the idea that legal quality should be assessed by those who know the requirements of lawyers’ work from their own professional experience. The decisive factor is not self-presentation, but recognition by the market and by expert professional colleagues.

Own suggestions are excluded. Inclusion in the ranking requires that third parties make a corresponding recommendation. The award shows that the professional work is not only noticed by clients, but is also recognized within the legal profession.

Award for KPW partners

We are very pleased that Clemens Pfitzer and Dr. Markus Wekwerth are again listed in this year’s Best Lawyers ranking and are thus among “Germany’s best lawyers 2026” according to Handelsblatt.

Clemens Pfitzer has been recognized for his special expertise in the areas of intellectual property law, IT law and data security and privacy law . He has been advising and representing national and international companies in these areas of law for many years.

Dr. Markus Wekwerth is one of the excellent lawyers in the current ranking in the field of intellectual property and litigation. He has also been assisting national and international companies for many years in the enforcement, defense and strategic protection of their intellectual property rights.

We are delighted about the recognition of our work by our colleagues, which we have received by repeatedly being named in the rankings of Best Lawyers and the Handelsblatt special “Germany’s Best Lawyers”.

We would like to thank our colleagues for the trust they have placed in us and our clients for the successful, often long-standing cooperation. The award is both recognition and an incentive for us to continue to work with full commitment for your interests in the future – professionally sound, reliable and always with an eye for the economic context.
