Best Lawyers and Handelsblatt have identified “Germany’s Best Law Firms 2026” – and we are delighted: SKW Schwarz has been named “Law Firm of the Year” in the field of Media Law.
What makes this especially rewarding is the fact that the rankings are based on Best Lawyers’ peer‑to‑peer principle. The decisive factor is how often law firms are recommended by other legal professionals. Lawyers vote for those colleagues whom they value professionally and consider particularly recommendable. Against this backdrop, SKW Schwarz being named “Law Firm of the Year” in media law is a strong signal of our reputation in the industry.
There is even more reason to celebrate: SKW Schwarz is also listed as a leading firm in numerous other areas of law – both nationally and regionally. The ranking shows that we support our clients broadly and at a high level in key future areas of business law: from data protection, IT and IP to employment law and M&A, all the way to tax and technology matters.
We would like to thank the colleagues who recommended us and our teams for their outstanding commitment. These awards motivate us to continue working on innovative solutions with high professional expertise, pragmatism, and enthusiasm.
