What defines the law office

This is not an anonymous large structure. Mandates are handled personally, decisions are made directly and communication remains clear. Anyone who works here receives insight into real proceedings and real responsibility.

The main areas include:

→criminal defence
→traffic criminal law
→white-collar and tax criminal law
→narcotics criminal law
→sexual criminal law
→immigration law
→residence permits, naturalisation and family reunification
→cases with international elements
→multilingual client communication
→digital law office development and client acquisition

This is not only about legal theory. It is about helping clients in stressful situations, analysing files carefully, keeping deadlines under control, writing clear submissions to authorities and courts, and thinking strategically.

For qualified legal assistants and law office professionals

A good law office does not depend only on legal work. Deadlines, communication, electronic legal communication, file structure, client contact and reliable organisation decide every day whether proceedings run properly.

That is why qualified legal assistants, certified legal specialists and experienced law office staff are particularly interesting for the law office.

Important skills include:

→confident communication with clients, courts and authorities
→careful deadline and follow-up control
→experience with electronic legal communication and digital files
→structured document organisation
→understanding of legal fees and billing
→discretion in sensitive criminal and immigration matters
→independent working style
→clear language on the phone and by email
→interest in digital law office structures

People who do not merely complete tasks but think along are especially valuable: What is urgent? Which deadline is running? Which documents are missing? Which communication must be documented properly?

The law office is growing. Those who join early can help shape structures, take responsibility and not simply be placed into fixed routines.

For legal assistant apprentices

Training also remains an important part of building the law office. Good legal assistant training is not only about deadlines, files and fees. It means understanding the law office as a whole: client contact, structure, reliability, electronic legal communication, deadline control, documents, communication and responsibility.

Important qualities are:

→accuracy
→friendliness
→discretion
→reliability
→confident language
→interest in digital work
→willingness to take responsibility

In a growing law office, it is possible to learn a lot early and see how professional structures are built.

For law students and research assistants

Law students and research assistants may support legal research, file preparation, draft submissions, case law analysis and legal structuring.

Interest in the following areas is particularly valuable:

→criminal procedure
→substantive criminal law
→immigration law
→administrative proceedings
→immigration authorities and embassies
→clear legal language
→strategic case handling

The goal is not only to complete tasks, but to understand why a certain step is useful in a case. Good legal work does not mean writing as complicatedly as possible. It means identifying the problem precisely and preparing the right solution.

For school students and interns

Anyone who wants to understand early what legal work really looks like can gain first insights into the law office. An internship is suitable for school students or future law students who do not only want to observe, but want to understand how criminal proceedings, immigration procedures and law office organisation work.

Reliability, discretion, interest in language and a serious manner are expected. Especially in criminal defence and immigration law, sensitive information is involved. Confidentiality is therefore essential.

For legal trainees and training-stage candidates

Legal trainees and candidates for legal training stages may also get in touch if they want to learn about criminal defence, immigration law, client contact and independent case preparation.

Whether and in what form a legal training stage can be offered will be reviewed individually according to the applicable requirements.

Possible insights and tasks may include:

→file analysis
→drafting submissions
→preparation of defence strategies
→research on case law and legal literature
→participation in meetings by arrangement
→insight into electronic legal communication
→preparation of letters to authorities, courts and public prosecutors

The goal is to learn legal thinking: What is the objective? What is at stake for the client? Which mistakes must be avoided? Which step actually moves the case forward?

For attorneys and freelance cooperation

Cooperation may also be interesting for attorneys or freelancers who want to work in criminal defence, immigration law or business-related legal matters.

Suitable personalities think independently, communicate clearly and do not merely want to administer files. Profiles are particularly interesting with a connection to:

→criminal defence
→traffic criminal law
→white-collar and tax criminal law
→immigration law
→administrative law
→multilingual client support
→entrepreneur mandates
→digital law office structures

Depending on the situation, cooperation may be considered in employment, freelance work or project-based work.

What matters

Legal knowledge matters depending on the position - but attitude matters just as much.

Important qualities are:

→reliability
→discretion
→clear communication
→quick understanding
→careful work
→sense of responsibility
→interest in real cases
→no fear of difficult topics
→willingness to think along

We are not looking for people who only want another line on their CV. We are looking for people who want to learn, contribute and take responsibility.

Multilingual work

The law office advises in German, English and Russian. Additional language skills can be especially valuable, particularly Arabic, Turkish or other languages relevant to international mandates.

Multilingual work is not only translation. It helps to truly understand clients, capture facts accurately and build trust.

Application

Unsolicited applications are welcome.

Please send a short, clear application with:

→brief introduction
→current CV
→desired type of cooperation
→possible time period
→relevant language skills
→certificates or documents, if available
→short explanation why criminal defence, immigration law or law office work interests you

Long standard cover letters are not necessary. What matters is that it becomes clear who you are, what you can contribute and why you may fit the law office.
