The Desk reflects the steady influx of German clients seen in recent years and aligns with the firm\u2019s mission to continuously satisfy the inbound and outbound cross-border needs of its diverse client base.<\/p>\n
Recognizing the importance of multi-local insight, Kaufhold & R\u00e9veillaud officially launched the Desk in 2006 to serve its German-speaking clientele, mainly in the areas of corporate law, commercial litigation and labor law.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile Germany and Luxembourg are similar in many ways, there are distinct legal and cultural differences that must be grasped in order to have a complete picture,\u201d said Brigitte Czoske, Lawyer at Kaufhold & R\u00e9veillaud and cofounder of the German Desk. \u201cHaving this dedicated service means that we appreciate and fully understand both contexts and their nuances.\u201d<\/p>\n
Czoske the Desk\u2019s head, is fully licensed to practice law in Germany.<\/p>\n
Additionally, she is cofounder of Luxembourg\u2019s German Bar Association (Deutscher AnwaltVerein in Luxemburg), serving as Vice President. Charles Kaufhold, Founding Partner of the law firm, leads the organization in his role as President.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur team has experience with the legal worlds on both sides of the border and is uniquely equipped to support our international clients. When a German client arrives he or she is often used to another legal system, so we can assist,\u201d Czoske added.<\/p>\n
When recruiting new lawyers in 2016, Kaufhold & R\u00e9veillaud specifically focused on German speakers to reinforce this specific aspect of their service offering, addressing the needs of individuals who are generally from Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland or Austria.<\/p>\n
Our German Desk is unique in that German speaking lawyers in our law firm are represented at all levels, from partner to junior lawyers, and across all of our different areas of expertise, resulting in real added value for our German-speaking clients.<\/p>\n
