In the years to come we will continue to grow and to welcome further excellent lawyers into our highly specialised teams. In doing so, we will not only continue to hire the most promising lawyers but will in particular lead the best amongst our associates to partnership in our firm.

History:
The Beginnings
The roots of our firm date back to the firm of Biro & Reik, which was taken over and renamed by Gottfried Eisenberger and Jörg Herzog in 1968. The partnership was later joined by Michael Nierhaus and Ralph Forcher and, in 1995, by Christian Riesemann and Georg Eisenberger. Gottfried Eisenberger became emeritus in 2001 and has since been active for our firm as a senior adviser, in particular in waste management law.
Recent Past
Starting with our re-focus on corporate and commercial law, initiated in 2004, we have been one of the most strongly growing Austrian law firms. In the course of our expansion we have been able to attract as new partners a significant number of lawyers who have been working for many years in top international law firms including Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP in Vienna, London and New York.
Simultaneously with the opening of our Vienna office in January 2005, we have been expanding and intensifying our network of co-operations with leading law firms in Central and (South-)Eastern Europe, Western Europe and the United States. Today we are enjoying a well-established network of specialised top law firms, which has been well tested in numerous joint transactions. Backed by this network we can guarantee our clients first class cross-border advice in a one-shop approach.
Outlook
Notwithstanding the rapid development of our team in these past years, what clients see in us today will remain in the foreground: swift, dynamic and efficient advice to our clients, creative solutions based on top legal quality, and delight in developing interdisciplinary strategies together with our clients.
