Our firm’s third German office is based in Munich, the Bavarian capital.
One of the most commercially influential centres in Europe, Munich is second
only to Frankfurt as a German financial hub. Munich has developed into a pivotal
centre for industry resulting from its growing reputation in the high-tech
sector.
Focal points of our Munich office are the Asset Management and Investment Funds
and Intellectual Property (IP) Procurement and Portfolio Management practices.
Our team also has extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions transactions,
both within the industrial market and in private equity. An additional focus of
our work is on corporate law for German and international corporations.
Our IP Litigation and IP Procurement and Portfolio Management practices also play
important roles in light of the implementation of the Unified Patent Court (UPC)
Agreement to enforce European patents across Europe.
Our Munich office works closely with the Berlin and Frankfurt offices to
constitute a seamless German practice, providing comprehensive advice on
national and international commercial law. Efficient transaction and project
management, combined with increased partner involvement, are distinctive
features of our legal services. We advise international and German industrial
companies, banks, and financial investors, as well as the public sector, on
commercial law.
