Frankfurt

In Frankfurt, we have both German- and U.S.-qualified lawyers who practice principally in the securities, M&A and acquisition finance areas and are assigned to the Firm’s General Practice/Corporate Group. We are actively recruiting at the entry level and are open to applications from lawyers with professional experience in these areas.

German-qualified lawyers

We are actively recruiting German-qualified lawyers to join our expanding German law practice in Frankfurt. For German-qualified candidates completing an LL.M. degree in the United States, we regularly recruit at the LL.M. job fairs. German lawyers with an LL.M. degree may be given the opportunity to work in our New York or London office for a period of time prior to joining the Frankfurt office. We also have internships available for Referendare.

Applicants for German associate positions must have completed the second Staatsexamen. A German doctorate degree and/or U.S. LL.M. degree is desirable but not essential.

German-trained lawyers should direct inquiries and their applications to the following address:

U.S.-qualified lawyers

We are particularly interested in recruiting U.S.-qualified lawyers with German language speaking ability for the Frankfurt office. Typically, lawyers would begin in one of our U.S. offices or in London before being assigned to the Frankfurt office. Interested summer associates may also be given the opportunity to work in the Frankfurt office for a portion of the summer.

The hiring of U.S.-trained lawyers for Frankfurt is coordinated out of the New York office. For information about how to submit an application to work in the Frankfurt office, please see How to Apply.
