Handelsblatt have this week published a ranking of leading names in arbitration and mediation. The ranking includes my firm, Taylor Wessing, and my Frankfurt partner, Klaus Kupka.

Over at Legal 500, they have kind words in their current edition for the mediation skills of my Hamburg partner Axel Boesch.

But when my teenage daughter read the client statement about her dad quoted by Legal 500, she though it was funny: “Clients of Taylor Wessing observe that Peter Bert ‘remains calm in heated situations’.”
