About us

Wherever you decide to invest: We are your legal support in Europe

More than 50 years after the foundation of our pan-European law firm and more than 15 years after the establishment of our Chinese representative offices, Schindhelm today consists of a truly multi-disciplinary team of lawyers from many cultures in Europe and China, dedicated to teamwork, collaboration and excellent legal support to our clients from China.

Over decades, Schindhelm has earned an outstanding reputation for successfully representing Chinese clients at more than 25 offices across Europe in day-to-day business as well as in complex transactional, investigative, regulatory and litigation matters in all relevant areas of law in Europe.

With offices strategically located in Europe's business centers (including Bologna, Budapest, Bucharest, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Osnabrück, Paris, Prague, Salzburg, Warsaw and Vienna), our perspective and reach are truly international. Our 230 European lawyers are fluent in German, English and the local language.

In addition, our lawyers in our representative offices in Shanghai and Taicang are fluent in Chinese and serve as local contacts for our Chinese clients in China, using their cultural awareness and cross-border legal expertise to bring clarity to the dynamic business landscape on the bridge between China and Europe.
