Evelien Pijfers wins the Jorge Mañá Award 2022!

 

The WLN Board are very pleased to announce that the winner of the Jorge Mañá Award 2022 is… Evelien Pijfers of Everest , Belgium!

The winner's bursary will support Evelien in spending time with fellow WLN member firm Flood Herslow Holme in Sweden. The WLN Board members all send Evelien our warm congratulations.

Background: the Jorge Mañá Young Lawyers Award is an annual grant made by WLN to a lawyer under the age of 35 who is employed by a WLN member firm. Jorge Mañá Argüelles was a valued colleague, friend and partner in WLN, who died tragically after a skiing accident in spring 2009 at the age of 41.

The WLN Board promotes the Award in memory of Jorge and as a symbol for the good relationships in the network which lie at the heart of satisfying and prosperous business. The financial award should contribute towards the winner's travel and accommodation expenses. After two difficult years we are happy that we can once again support a young lawyer of the network with a placement abroad.

We wish Evelien an excellent time in Stockholm and look forward to learning about her experience when she returns.
