Divjak, Topić & Bahtijarević Law Firm has appointed four of their female colleagues to the position of partners, closing a year of great changes in the best possible way. The lawyers Ana-Marija Grubišić Čabraja, Ema Menđušić Škugor, Marina Kovač Krka and Martina Kalamiza, have contributed their expansive knowledge and experience to DTB’s development for years, and they are to assume their partner status as of January 1, 2020.

Furthermore, after more than eleven years on the DTB team, six of which he has acted as the firm’s partner, Mario Krka will be appointed senior partner. At the same time, DTB lawyers Hana Renić Henig and Jasna Belčić will become senior lawyers.

“In choosing our new partners and making all the other new appointments, we were guided by the values that we had been building DTB on over the past years. That is why expertise, continued personal development, leadership, responsibility, timely completion of tasks, and entrepreneurial spirit are all characteristics our new partners have in common. We expect them to strengthen us, not only with their expertise and professional abilities, but also their energy and human qualities, and, as partners, to contribute significantly to us remaining committed to providing our clients with the best possible service,” said Emir Bahtijarević, Managing Partner at Divjak, Topić & Bahtijarević Law Firm, commenting on the new appointments.
