Our Germany lawyers work on some of the most significant matters in Europe, including German auto parts manufacturer ZF’s acquisition of Bosch Rexroth’s gearbox division and representing Steag and EVN during arbitration proceedings related to the construction of an €820 million power plant in Duisburg.

Our Antitrust & Competition and Banking & Finance practices won the International Law Office's 2016 Client Choice Awards for their commitment to client excellence.

We are also market leaders in Employment and IT & Communications, and advise clients based in China on their investment activities in Germany. With our entrepreneurial spirit and efficient project management, we help clients overcome business and legal challenges and execute their global growth strategies.
