World’s best in law for 2022

NZ Lawyer honours the top legal stars of the year across Australia, New Zealand and Canada

World’s best in law for 2022

Throughout 2022, Key Media’s research team released a series of special reports that showcased the top-performing legal professionals and companies across a number of important categories. Over the past 12 months, 55,000 surveys were sent to our readers across Australia, Canada and New Zealand, and the reports have garnered over 1 million views.

Our annual Best in Law report recognises all of the legal award winners from this period. The list provides a definitive collection of those who have delivered outstanding results, introduced new initiatives, refined existing working practices and also acted as a source of inspiration to colleagues.

Among the firms honoured are DLA Piper and Russell McVeagh. This guide was curated and published by Canadian Lawyer, Australasian Lawyer, Lexpert, Canadian Law List, Law Times and NZ Lawyer.
