German Desk

German regulatory discipline does not stop at your borders. Neither should your legal counsel. Since 2001, we have helped German, Austrian and Swiss businesses succeed in Central and Eastern Europe by offering what most firms cannot: German-fluent, dual-qualified lawyers who understand your regulatory expectations at home and apply them with precision across the region.
We work with mid-sized Mittelstand companies and DAX-listed multinationals on the mandates that matter most: cross-border acquisitions, regulatory compliance, commercial disputes, and day-to-day operations. Our clients return to us because we deliver coordinated, structured counsel in all CEE jurisdictions, tailored to the sectors where German capital moves – automotive and manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, financial services, logistics, and retail.
Through our active involvement in German chambers of commerce and leading business networks in CEE, we stay connected to the realities your leadership teams navigate daily. That proximity matters when entering new markets, managing regulatory uncertainty, or resolving cross-border disputes. You get counsel from lawyers trained in German governance frameworks who know how local decisions will play in your boardroom.
