In 2026, HAVEL & PARTNERS once again successfully featured in the prestigious international Chambers High Net Worth Guide 2026, receiving the highest possible rating of Band 1 in the Private Wealth Law – Czech Republic category. The private client team, comprising 50 lawyers, tax advisers and accountants, handles the private affairs of clients, including many of the wealthiest Czechs and Slovaks, prominent entrepreneurs, investors, sports stars, and successful businesswomen.
“This prestigious international ranking confirms that we have long been among the leaders in advising entrepreneurs, investors and families on the protection, management and intergenerational transfer of wealth. It is precisely in this area that clients today are looking not only for top-class legal expertise, but above all for an experienced partner who understands their business and their long-term goals,” said Jaroslav Havel, managing partner at HAVEL & PARTNERS and the family office ONE FAMILY OFFICE.
HAVEL & PARTNERS has a long-standing commitment to providing services to private clients. As early as 2007, it was one of the first law firms on the Czech and Slovak market to set up a specialist team dedicated exclusively to this area. Today, it comprises more than 50 lawyers and tax advisers who provide comprehensive advice to leading businesspeople, investors and families on asset protection, succession planning, family holdings, trusts, foundations, and tax planning. HAVEL & PARTNERS’ private client team also won the Asset Management category in the Law Firm of the Year competition in the Czech Republic in 2025.
Specialised services for high-net-worth families and individuals have been further expanded by the affiliated family office, ONE FAMILY OFFICE, which provides comprehensive services in asset management, family wealth protection, including fiduciary services, and ensuring the highest possible quality of life for families in terms of health, safety, the education of future generations, and philanthropy.
In their assessment, Chambers’ analysts particularly highlighted the firm’s extensive experience and its ability to provide practical solutions even in highly complex situations. Clients praised the team’s high level of professionalism, reliability and efficiency. They also attribute the same qualities to the firm’s partner, David Neveselý, whom Chambers describes as an experienced specialist in asset structuring for high-net-worth clients and commends for his personalised approach, professionalism and many years of experience.
The Chambers High Net Worth rankings are among the most prestigious international rankings of law firms providing services to private clients. The results are based on an extensive independent survey of both clients and professionals.
