Important information and key updates for the Rising Stars Awards 2022

It is our great pleasure to inform you that the preeminent industry programme for recognising the achievements of emerging leaders in the practice of law, the Rising Stars Awards, is returning for 2022.

As we have in previous years, we will be working closely with our supporting legal benchmarking and rankings teams to best recognise the top emerging talent from across the Americas, Asia-Pacific (APAC), and Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) in a wide array of practice area specialisms.

The research team has developed several channels for firms and in-house teams to promote their outstanding juniors to us for recognition.

First and foremost, we highly recommend engaging with our associated benchmarking and rankings teams at Benchmark LitigationIFLR1000IP STARS, and World Tax/World Transfer Pricing

Second, we encourage engaging with the Expert Guides and their Rising Stars publication.  

Finally, we will release a submissions form and portal where nominees can be sent directly to the awards.
