Handelsblatt / Best Lawyers in Germany 2025 – Kather Augenstein again honored in the categories of intellectual property law and conflict resolution

Handelsblatt, in collaboration with the renowned US specialist publisher Best Lawyers, has published the 17th edition of its annual ranking of leading lawyers in Germany. Kather Augenstein has again been listed in intellectual property and litigation.

We are delighted to announce the special recognition received by Dr. Peter Kather, Dr. Christof Augenstein, Miriam Kiefer LL.M., Christopher Weber and Sören Dahm, who have been named among the best lawyers in Germany in their respective fields of intellectual property law. Also in the field of intellectual property law, Dr. Benjamin Pesch was named one of this year’s Ones to Watch – Lawyers of the Future. This award is given to lawyers who have distinguished themselves through outstanding achievements in their young careers. They have generally been practising for 3-8 years.

In addition, Dr. Christof Augenstein and Christopher Weber were listed as best lawyers in Germany in the field of litigation.

The ranking is based on an independent peer review survey of lawyers who make recommendations outside their own law firm. This award is therefore both a significant seal of quality and a high level of professional recognition within the industry.

We would like to thank our clients for their continued trust and our colleagues for their special appreciation.
