Founded in 1993 and located on the famous Kurfürstendamm, the Berlin office quickly became one of the most recognized law practices. The seat of the German Parliament and the location of most of the country’s regulatory offices, Berlin has recently emerged as an important center for Germany’s real estate industry.
In 2008, Orrick merged with Hölters & Elsing to provide expanded geographic coverage to their clients by combining Hölters & Elsing’s three offices in Germany (located in Berlin, Düsseldorf and Frankfurt) with Orrick’s offices located throughout North America, Asia and Europe. In 2011 Orrick opened an office in Munich.
With more than 60 German-, English- and U.S.-qualified lawyers, Orrick has developed a prestigious reputation for providing sophisticated legal services to large international clients and German corporations, commercial and investment banks, and a wide range of other financial services providers. Our lawyers have experience in all major industry sectors, including human resources, financial services, entertainment and media, telecommunications, real estate, utilities, energy and automotive, among others.
When needed, our German lawyers can call on the substantial resources of Orrick’s other European, U.S. and Asian offices to provide clients with the expertise and support for their transactional and litigation matters worldwide. Across the firm, seamless client service is Orrick’s primary goal.
