Academic focus
A further aspect of our tradition is a strong academic commitment. Most of our lawyers are academically active as authors or editors of textbooks and articles and also as lecturers. This is substantiated by roughly 40 honorary professorships and lectureships as well as several hundred publications. This claim to academic excellence is further reinforced by the fact that working for us usually requires a PhD.
In our experience, academic commitment and a high standard of advice to clients complement each other. It has often come about that concepts developed in our legal studies have later proved themselves of practical application in advising our clients, and these have even, in some cases, become market standards.
