    International Briefing February 2025


    Dear Friends and Colleagues,

    welcome to the February issue of ADVANT Beiten's International Briefing.

    Our ADVANT M&A practice is pleased to share that in 2024 Mergermarket's Global and Regional Rankings, we were ranked among the top 20 law firms in Europe by deal count. You can download the report here. This Mergermarket highlight reflects the dedication of the whole team working seamlessly across ADVANT Altana, ADVANT Beiten, and ADVANT Nctm. We wish to thank our domestic and international clients for the growing trust in our offering on the European market.

    In this issue we will also highlight interesting developments in the European and German legal landscape, give you an insight into our secondment program, invite you to meet us at international events, and tell you about our recent deals.

    Kind regards,

    Dr Barbara Mayer
