Commercial law firms play an important role in advising companies, shareholders, investors, managers, executive board members and managing directors. The issues they address and the practices they focus on are an indicator of the state of the economy; their staff not only possess legal expertise but also a compelling, in-depth understanding of business management, the market and the industries, enabling them to grasp the overall context. BWD serves as a powerful voice for commercial law firms. Its members, including BBH, collectively employ around 20,000 staff of whom more than 6,000 are qualified lawyers.

BBH name partner Prof. Christian Held expressed his pride in the development of the BWD, which was co-founded by the BBH group, and in his BBH colleague’s re-election. “I think it essential that the BBH group remains an active member of the Federal Association of Commercial Law Firms in Germany. As commercial law firms, we are an integral part of the economy and the BDW member firms generate an annual turnover of more than €2.7 billion. My heartfelt congratulations go to Prof. Dr. Ines Zenke and to our group for being re-elected. A strong economy requires strong advice.”

With more than 700 employees, 7,000 clients and 7 offices, the BBH group is a leading provider of advisory services to energy and infrastructure companies and their customers. Energy and supply companies, particularly public utilities, municipalities and local authorities, industrial companies and international groups are among its core clients. The BBH group assists these and many other companies and organisations with legal, business and strategic advice.
