Ukraine Expands the Scope of International Arbitration

In the current ranking “Germany’s Best Lawyers”, published by Handelsblatt in cooperation with the U.S. specialist publisher Best Lawyers®, BRP RENAUD achieved its strongest result to date: 31 lawyers were recommended across a total of 16 different practice areas — 25 times as “Best Lawyers,” 6 times as “Ones to Watch,” as well as one “Lawyer of the Year” distinction.

On German Diversity Day, 19 May, BRP RENAUD officially announced that it has signed the Diversity Charter.

Ukraine has brought into force a new law that broadens the scope of international arbitration and allows more disputes to be resolved locally rather than abroad.

In the current JUVE ranking “Leading Advisers in the Regions”, the editors confirm BRP RENAUD’s strong presence in southwestern Germany: in the core areas of employment, corporate and antitrust law, the firm continues to rank among the region’s leading names. The ranking also underscores our broad platform for mid-sized companies, covering Corporate/M&A, real estate and construction law, IT and data protection law, tax law, as well as white-collar crime, tax crime and compliance. JUVE further recognizes the firm’s strategic expansion of specialized expertise, including banking, insurance and medical law. As a particular strength, the editors highlight the firm’s renowned patent filing practice, supported by its own patent attorneys.

Eike Frederik Neugebauer will join BRP RENAUD as a partner on 1 May 2026, complementing the real estate financing segment at the Frankfurt office. With this reinforcement, BRP RENAUD completes its range of services in real estate law. In future, the practice group will cover all key areas—from planning and construction law to transactions and financing.
