Firm Overview

Herbst Kinsky, founded in 2005, has become one of Austria’s leading law firms. In less than a decade, we have earned a reputation for providing the highest quality legal advice and representation to our clients. We specialize in matters that require extensive experience, a high level of sophistication and individual attention by our partners. Our firm with more than 30 lawyers consistently ranks at or near the top of the market in each of our core practice areas.

Our founding partners combined their talents to create a new type of law firm, built on an ethic of hard work, commitment and quality that has nurtured the firm’s dynamic growth. Yet we are not, and do not strive to become, the largest Austrian firm measured by number of lawyers. We operate at a ratio of partners to associates far above that of our major competitors, and matters

undertaken by our firm receive the direct personal attention of partners having expertise and sophistication with respect to these issues. What motivates us on every single day is the curiosity and openness we espouse with regard to new developments in the field of law and business, andour enjoyment of working to provide legal satisfaction. Our success is the result of the quality of our lawyers. From its beginning, our firm has strived to develop the most broadly and deeply trained collection of attorneys. We accomplish this by hiring only exceptional law students who participate in our

unique training system: rather than limiting our associates to specialize early on, we make every effort to ensure that each of our team members works on a broad range of transactions. We believe that the experience our attorneys have makes them well-rounded counsellors to our clients. The result are attorneys with diverse areas of knowledge and extraordinary professional judgment.
