National law firm with international network
Providing legal services that are independent
HEUKING is counseling in German law in the major business centers and consciously decided against an international merger in order to guarantee its own independence and that of its clients.
The law firm provides legal services to German and foreign clients, whom it advises on foreign law matters. In doing so, the partnership is embedded in an international network of law firms with which it cooperates on a "good friends" basis without being tied to exclusivity agreements.
HEUKING has found its strategic positioning with a broad range of expertise, strong areas of specialization, a nationwide presence and a focus on advising medium-sized companies and the public sector.
It regularly succeeds in responding to changes in the advisory needs of its clients and being more than the sum of its parts."
