Why Wolf Theiss Brussels

This new office will serve as a crucial hub for strengthening Wolf Theiss’ support for clients across Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe (CEE/SEE), enhancing the firm’s ability to deliver focused legal expertise while maintaining its strategic focus on the region. By establishing a presence in Brussels, the firm is better positioned to connect its clients in CEE/SEE to the core of EU operations, while reinforcing its commitment to growth in these markets.

We have grown our Competition and Antitrust Practice Group substantially over the last years; Opening the office in Brussels is a reflection of that.

Our core asset is our geography. We are in the heart of Europe. Opening a new office in its informal capital is a logical step.

They say that your professional heart is where your best relationships are. We’re here in Brussels right at the core of European competition law to celebrate our relationships and act in the best interest of our clients and befriended law firms for whom we deliver a complementary footprint and service.

We live in a time of geopolitical and economic turbulence. This also led to an increased level of scrutiny and decrease in regulatory convergence across our region in the competition law and FDI space. We think this is why this is exactly the right time for our “move” as we are in the prime position to act as a one-stop-shop and hub to facilitate investments in our region by helping our Brussels counterparts to navigate through the local regulatory jungle.
