Job description

We are always open to expanding our team – whether you are looking for your first position or already have some experience as a lawyer.

When you start your career with us, we focus on on‑the‑job training. To this end, you will be supported by “your” partner and will receive constructive and regular feedback. This 1:1 relationship is very important for your education. As a lateral entrant, we will pick you up and integrate you into our teams.

You will be involved with clients from day one. You will not be sitting in the backoffice. We value the fact that we have harmonized teams across all fields of law working at our office. We support and promote our employees building their own clientele.

We employ a multilevel career model: Associate, Partner and Counsel:

For the first few years, you will be assigned to a dedicated mentor as an Associate and will be encouragingly guided towards your next challenging career step.

This will open up various career models: the path to becoming a counsel or a partner. After completing your time as an Associate you will undergo several years of preparation, among other things by you assuming responsibility for counseling clients as part of your continuing education. Furthermore, you will already be integrated into further decision‑making processes.

You will then be appointed as counsel or become a partner. Although there are no differences with respect to requirements regarding professional excellence, both positions have different emphases when it comes to the setting of acquisition‑related and entrepreneurial objectives and responsibility. The joint decision for either career path is not a given; changes in personal circumstances and in life may later lead to a change within those career paths.

Tailored special solutions, including for issues like part‑time employment, are a matter of course for us – for all career steps.

Your competencies as an attorney should include the following:

• Business fluent English
• Study abroad (e.g. for an LL.M.) a plus
• Doctorate preferred.

We consider personality and individuality equally important as grades and titles. We hold regular events for our junior staff such as social get-togethers or sporting events – after all, we would like to get to know you!
