German law firm Gleiss Lutz bumped nine people up to partner, which is way more than the two they promoted last year. The new partners are scattered across Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, and Stuttgart offices, and three of them are women. That brings the female partner percentage from 14 to 16 percent out of their 86-person partnership. Four other lawyers got moved up to counsel, and everything kicks in starting January 2026.
Frankfurt got five new partners, while Düsseldorf and Stuttgart each got two. Most of the promoted lawyers work on international and cross-border stuff. The firm has offices in other German cities, plus London and Brussels, and they even opened a metaverse office back in 2022. One of their recent big wins was helping the Dutch Ministry of Finance sell a stake in a German power grid operator for 9.5 billion euros.
