Dower was recognised as “Team of the Year Tax” at the Iberian Lawyer Forty under 40 Awards 2026, an accolade awarded to the firm’s Tax Law team in recognition of the work developed in this practice area.
The distinction was announced in Madrid during the Forty under 40 Awards ceremony, organised by Iberian Lawyer, a publication specialising in the legal markets of Portugal and Spain.
i. Recognition of Dower’s Tax Law practice
In the “Team of the Year Tax” category, Iberian Lawyer highlighted Dower for its technical expertise and its ability to develop tailored strategies to address complex tax challenges.
The publication particularly emphasised the team’s ability to turn complex tax and regulatory frameworks into practical, business-oriented solutions, thereby recognising the technical, strategic and client-focused approach that characterises Dower’s Tax Law practice.
This distinction therefore represents recognition of the work the team has been carrying out in advising companies, organisations and private clients on Tax Law and taxation matters, within a constantly evolving legal and regulatory environment.
ii. What are the Iberian Lawyer Forty under 40 Awards?
The Iberian Lawyer Forty under 40 Awards are organised by Iberian Lawyer and are designed to recognise professionals and teams from the new generation who stand out in the Iberian legal market.
The awards cover a range of practice areas and bring together law firms and legal professionals from Portugal and Spain, seeking to distinguish the work carried out by lawyers and teams that have established themselves in their respective areas of expertise.
The 2026 edition, held at the Palacio de la Prensa in Madrid, brought together a number of law firms from across the Iberian legal market, with awards presented in areas including Tax, M&A, Litigation, Banking & Finance, Energy, Public Law and Real Estate, among others.
The presentation of the “Team of the Year Tax” award to Dower therefore holds particular significance, placing the work of its Tax team within a context of recognition across the Iberian legal market.
