Business Law Advice - Tax Specialization
For over 30 years FLICK GOCKE SCHAUMBURG has specialized in providing tax-centred legal advice. National and foreign firms as well as professional market observers regard us as leaders in our field in Germany. Administrative and legislative officials regularly seek our advice.
We maintain personal relations with many excellent consultants abroad. These contacts have developed through cooperation on various transnational projects, enabling us to provide quick and effective legal advice in cross-border matters.
Our clients are domestic and foreign corporate groups, family-owned businesses with national and international operations, small and medium-sized enterprises, high-net-worth individuals and families as well as public institutions and non-profit organizations.
FLICK GOCKE SCHAUMBURG currently has 66 partners and over 157 associates at its four office locations in Bonn, Berlin, Frankfurt-am-Main and München.
Interdisciplinary Approach - Complete Solutions
Our clients' problems are often extraordinarily complex and not limited to isolated topics.
In order to solve them we take an interdisciplinary approach. Roughly half of the partners and associates at FLICK GOCKE SCHAUMBURG are lawyers, the other half being certified tax consultants and public auditors. Since our firm is not organized into fixed departments, the fact that a problem requires expertise in several different areas is not an obstacle for us. We can quickly put together teams of experts with different specializations who each supply a piece of the puzzle.
It is not unusual for our lawyers, certified tax consultants as well as public auditors to belong to the same team. As a group, they are able to arrive at innovative solutions tailored specifically to each individual client's needs. This is true even in cases where solutions seem impossible to others. Yet at the same time we avoid walking a tightrope. We do not make proposals unless we are convinced that they will provide our clients with legal certainty and an enduring solution to their problems.
Personal Advice - Trust and Responsibility
We know that our clients´ trust is based on their personal relationship with us as advisors. That is why FLICK GOCKE SCHAUMBURG place great emphasis on advisors having outstanding personal qualities. These individuals set and maintain the level of service our firm offers. Since we know that such skills must be cultivated, we attach a great deal of importance to advancing our staff. We intentionally provide them with the freedom and space to develop into excellent advisors. In light of this it is hardly surprising that our ties with clients are close and have lasted over many years.
We reciprocate the confidence placed in us by assuming individual responsibility. "Accountability to the client" is not an abstract notion, but an integral part of the day-to-day work of the partners at FLICK GOCKE SCHAUMBURG. When we are engaged to act on behalf of a client, we feel personally committed and accountable. Accordingly, each partner is directly available to "his" or "her" clients even in cases where teamwork is involved.
