Full Service Plus

because results are all that matters

Gleiss Lutz offers full service at the highest level. We aspire to be among the market leaders in every field of the law. What particularly sets us apart is our lawyers’ holistic approach: they are always aware of aspects to the right and left of their own legal area. If required, partners will pull experts from all relevant areas of the law into a project on an ad hoc basis. Working in individually tailored teams, we develop innovative solutions and recommendations for action for even the most difficult and complex issues that companies find themselves facing.

Exceeding Expectations

The yardstick of our performance

The success of our clients is our ultimate goal. Personal, continuous support of mandate and client is therefore a bedrock component of our approach to providing legal advice. We want to understand our clients, their challenges, and their respective market environment to the fullest extent possible so that we can develop comprehensive, across-the-board, optimal solutions for them. Therefore we invest time and attention in meaningful, long-term relationships.

Service orientation is a top priority for us in our work with clients. Plain language, pragmatic solutions, and maximum availability characterise our work. Our small, individually tailored German or international teams are as big as necessary and as slim as possible. As one of the largest law firms in Germany, we have the necessary clout for complex projects.

Made in Germany

At home at a global stage

A particular strength of our firm lies in our extensive, tightly knit international network. For decades we have maintained close personal relationships with leading law firms around the world. We provide one-stop-shop support to clients on complex international projects and, as an independent law firm, have the flexibility to work with the best partners for any specific project. We are not bound to our own international offices or to any particular law firms, rather for each mandate can select the lawyers who will deliver the highest quality in their respective areas of the law and jurisdictions. Our goal is to deliver a perfect service in every sense of the term.
