JUVE Handbook
“The specialist boutique is recommended in the field of labor and employment law and established nation-wide. It was able to acquire numerous new clients. For example, it now advises Escada on a major restructuring process. In addition, advice on questions of labor and employment law compliance issues has played a larger role. Recently, mandates frequently were acquired via specific cases, where it was able to establish itself through litigation and ongoing comprehensive advice on matter of labor and employment law or assisting in setting up new compliance structures, e.g. at the ADAC (together with Freshfields) or Bavaria Filmstudios. The fact that already at its formation, Altenburg created structures that enable integrated client work from various locations sets it apart from other boutiques with several offices: Personnel capacities hence can be optimally exploited. The Berlin office developed further clout with the addition of Dr. Charlotte Beck, who joined from Gleiss as full partner.”

“The six partners and ten associates at Altenburg Specialist Fachanwälte für Arbeitsrecht provide advise on all aspects of labor and employment law, including related areas such as social security and company law. Munich continues to be the site with the largest number of attorneys, but other offices are located in Berlin and Hamburg as well. Stephan Altenburg represented the ADAC in connection with mass lay-offs, and Andreas Ege assisted ProSieben-Sat.1 in connection with service contracts with managing directors and transaction monitoring. Axel Schmädicke is also recommended. Anna Köhn was promoted salary partner.”

“Altenburg has earned an outstanding reputation and established itself firmly on the market in a short period of time. In particular by reason of its expertise and high degree of specialisation, the firm is therefore often called in by other firms to consult in transactions. The opening of the Berlin office has been an extremely positive development, and the echo of the opening of the Hamburg office next year now remains to be seen. In Hamburg, Altenburg has already gained an exceedingly experienced and well-known employment-law specialist as a partner in the person of Dr. Tobias Schommer. It may therefore be expected that the growth experienced in the past years will continue.”
