The partners in our law firm Andrej Šooš Maceljski and Ivana Miloš attended from 17 to 19 November 2016 the Annual Assembly of the international organisation Cicero League of International Lawyers. We are members and represent the Republic of Croatia in that prestigious network.

Cicero members meet regularly twice a year in order to share business experience and ideas with other fellow attorneys from around the world. The meeting was held in Madrid and was organised by the Spanish law firm Ceca Magán, which is also a Cicero member.

The Spanish hosts organised seminars and the traditional Annual Assembly whose focus was on the importance of building mutual business relations as a key to further enhancement of services offered to our clients. The lecture on strengthening communication skills, organisation of the business plan and keeping the clients as key prerequisites for survival in a very competitive legal market was of a special interest.

The optional programme included gatherings as well as discovering Madrid’s attractions and culture. We visited the Alcalá Gate, the Spanish national museum Prado, the most famous Madrid’s square Cibeles, the main square Plaza Mayor, we had dinner in the most famous flamenco bar in the world Coral de la Moreira and visited the stadium of the football club Real – the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. In short, we experienced the best atmosphere of the Spanish capital.

A three-day program ended with a gala dinner for all guests in the impressive Royal Theatre known as El Real.

The next meeting of Cicero members will be held in May 2017 in Zagreb and our law firm will host colleague attorneys from all over the world.

We look forward to the next meeting and hosting it in Zagreb.
