LAUSEN has once again been recognised as a top law firm in media and press law! In the current Legal500 ranking for the year 2025, LAUSEN is listed as one of the leading law firms in this field in “Tier 2”. This award is a clear endorsement of the firm’s outstanding expertise and the ongoing recognition it enjoys in the market.

Particularly noteworthy is the personal recommendation of many lawyers, including Dr Kerstin Bäcker, who is listed as a leading partner, and Dr Lorenz Haidinger, who is regarded as a leading associate. It’s great to see the next generation successfully established in the market and already being recognised.

This recognition reflects the commitment and passion that the LAUSEN team brings to every legal challenge. Particularly noteworthy is the ranking in the area of media and copyright disputes, where LAUSEN is one of the top 8 “Tier 1” firms. The firm is also well placed in media, press and publishing law and is listed in “Tier 3”.

It is a great pleasure for us to be ranked among the best by our colleagues. A big thank you to all those who place their trust in the firm!
