JUVE Ranking: GPK Pegger Kofler & Partners Further Strengthens its Leading Position in Corporate Law and M&A

In the current ‘Handbuch Österreich 2024/2025’ (Austrian Handbook 2024/2025) published by the JUVE Verlag, GPK Pegger Kofler & Partners is once again one of the leading commercial law firms in the country in the areas of Corporate Law and M&A (mergers & acquisitions).

According to the following JUVE evaluation, our law firm is considered one of the ‘most respected’ and ‘market-defining’ in Western Austria. We are particularly pleased to be able to build on our established top position in the ranking this year by improving our position in Corporate Law and continuing to excel in the M&A sector:

‘In western Austria, this Innsbruck-based law firm is one of the most respected, strongest in terms of its personnel, and most influential in the market […]. Accordingly, the practice is an active partner for local businesses in corporate law matters and transactions. Clients include companies from the regionally strongly represented tourism industry, from the trade sector as well as start-ups, IT companies and investors. The topics that GPK deals with are just as broad as its client portfolio. In the start-up environment, the consultants gained initial experience with the new FlexCo company form. Andrea Pegger advised on the establishment of a corresponding company, including the participation of international investors in a start-up for the recycling of building materials. More recently, Franz Pegger’s advice to several ecclesiastical legal entities on various topics, in which Canon Law played a role, stood out. Often recommended: Prof Dr Franz Pegger (‘excellent in commercial law’, client), Barbara Egger-Russe, Andrea Pegger (‘professional and fast’, client) […].’

Special thanks go to our partners Franz Pegger, Barbara Egger-Russe and Andrea Pegger, who is featured in the JUVE Handbook for the first time. We would like to congratulate them on their success!

The often long-standing trust of our clients encourages us to continue to actively tackle new challenges in the future and thus help shape the Austrian legal market in the long term.

The JUVE Handbook of Commercial Law Firms is regarded as the authoritative reference work for the German-speaking legal market. The rankings are based on comprehensive research among law firms and experts from the judiciary and academia as well as detailed analyses by JUVE Verlag.

Congratulations to all those of our colleagues who were recognised by JUVE Verlag!
