While the world grapples with high inflation and a cost of living crisis, many businesses cautiously yet pragmatically have been proactive in their dealmaking.

Uncertainties have impacted many sectors, but the Israeli private sector has weathered the storm in its typical resilient way.

This fifth edition of IsraelDesks rankings acknowledges those global law firms who are driving their clients’ Israel deals forwards in these challenging times.

As we did last year, we are asking law firms to complete a straightforward template and nominate their lead lawyers on the matters submitted so we can position leading individuals as market leaders.

The sectors include Energy & Infrastructure and Banking & Finance, High-Tech, and Real Estate, while we are looking for Israel-related M&A (volume and value), Capital Markets (volume and value), Employment, Litigation, Tax, Patents and IP matters.
