We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Gulnur Nurkeyeva, Managing Partner and Head of the China Office at GRATA International, has been honored with the prestigious "Visionary" award in the A-List 2024-2025 by China Business Law Journal.
Mrs. Nurkeyeva’s inclusion in the Visionaries category reaffirms her reputation as one of the most highly recommended foreign lawyers in China.
The Visionaries category recognizes experienced lawyers who hold key leadership roles within their firms and occupy prominent public positions. According to China Business Law Journal, these professionals go beyond traditional legal practice, charting the strategic course for their firms' future growth and distinguishing themselves in an increasingly competitive environment. All award-winning lawyers in this category have earned the trust of their clients through proven legal expertise, foresight, and the ability to balance legal compliance with commercial expediency. In 2023, 170 Chinese and foreign lawyers operating in the PRC market were included in this distinguished list.
China's legal market continues to grow rapidly, with the number of legal professionals nearing 700,000. The A-List Lawyers is based on an extensive annual survey conducted by China Business Law Journal. Thousands of in-house lawyers and legal practitioners in China and around the world provide recommendations, highlighting which lawyers they trust and why. The final selections are made by the journal’s editorial team, leveraging their comprehensive experience in analyzing China's legal market alongside additional information submitted by nominees.
This recognition marks yet another milestone in Mrs. Nurkeyeva’s distinguished career. She has been consistently acknowledged by China Business Law Journal, having previously been named an A-List Lawyer in 2022 and a Growth Driver in 2023.
This well-deserved honor underscores Mrs. Nurkeyeva’s unwavering dedication to excellence and her unparalleled contributions to the legal profession. GRATA International congratulates her on this remarkable achievement!
