LPA Law is expanding its European footprint by welcoming the Austrian firm Höhne, In der Maur & Partner into its network

Already firmly established in Germany with offices in Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich, and supported by a leading German Desk in Paris, LPA Law takes a major step forward in its European growth strategy. By welcoming the Vienna-based law firm Höhne, In der Maur & Partner, now operating under the name LPA Law Vienna, LPA Law strengthens its presence at the heart of the German-speaking region and consolidates its position as a key player in Europe’s main economic hubs.

With decades of experience and more than ten partners, the law firm advises national and international clients on complex matters in business law, IP/IT and real estate. It also enjoys an outstanding reputation as a leading law firm in the field of non-profit law, advising numerous international organizations and associations.

Its recognized expertise and in-depth knowledge of the Austrian market enhance LPA Law’s European offering, while the cultural, economic and legal proximity between Germany and Austria creates natural synergies, enabling the firm to provide clients with seamless and coordinated support across the entire German-speaking region and beyond that: Vienna is to become the bridgehead of our network for expansion into the emerging markets in Eastern and Southeastern Europe.

LPA Law therefore pursues a consistent international development strategy to meet the expectations of an increasingly global investor clientele. Ideally located in the heart of Europe, this establishment serves both as a strategic foothold for Central European markets and as a hub for international investment flows, particularly in connection with Asia, where LPA Law has longstanding presence through its six offices as well as its China and Japan Desks in Paris.

Frédéric Bailly, Partner and Managing Partner of LPA Law, welcomes this strategic move: “Built on complementarity and a shared vision, this expansion reflects our determination, as a trusted partner, to support our clients in their cross-border activities – in Europe, Asia and Africa – by ensuring maximum legal security, anticipating regulatory and economic challenges, and responding to their needs with agility and excellence.”

Thomas In der Maur, founding partner of Höhne, In der Maur & Partner, sees the cooperation as the logical next step in the company’s internationalisation strategy : « In this volatile environment, we have deliberately chosen to focus on a network with headquarters in one of the most important capitals of the European Union. We look forward to working with our partners to expand the network in Europe so that we can offer national and international clients a comprehensive range of services in the areas of law, taxation, and financing ».

With 15 offices worldwide and nearly 300 lawyers and legal professionals, LPA Law continues to strengthen its international reach and its ability to handle complex matters on a global scale.
