Spencer West launched in Germany in 2023 with a presence in two of the country’s most active marketplaces. Our Frankfurt office, based in the heart of the banking capital of Germany, serves both domestic and international business and private clients, particularly providing service to businesses in the financial, corporate, and commercial spheres, usually with a cross-border element.

The lawyers of Spencer West in Germany are qualified to provide first-class services in relation to finance and banking, commercial matters, technology and intellectual property, all matters relating to restructuring and insolvency, corporate transactions including mergers and acquisitions, employment law, and commercial disputes (including insolvency related and unfair competition), often with an international dimension, for a wide range of clients and corporations from various industries, including finance, automotive and manufacturing, pharmaceutical and logistical.

Our lawyers are experts recognised as leaders in their field, with backgrounds and professional careers spanning some of the most highly regarded firms in the German legal marketplace. With extensive experience in the international arena, our team are able to provide advice to businesses, from mid-market to owner managed, and families and individuals with interests located in multiple jurisdictions, often intervening in cross-border transactions and disputes in coordination with colleagues based in other international offices.

Spencer West allows you to have direct access to senior advisors, with the business and strategic experience you need to offer you bespoke, practical solutions, and to assist you with their implementation.
