What Audalis does

Audalis is a Dortmund-headquartered, multi-disciplinary German professional services firm (Wirtschaftskanzlei) operating as a network of affiliated partnerships and limited liability companies across five locations: Dortmund (HQ), Berlin, Bernau bei Berlin, Plettenberg (Südwestfalen), and Wroclaw, Poland. The firm combines five core service lines—Wirtschaftsprüfung (auditing), Steuerberatung (tax), Rechtsberatung (legal), Unternehmensberatung (business consulting), and IT-Beratung (IT consulting)—under one integrated platform, supplemented by specialized teams in Digitales (cloud, IT security), Family Office, Healthcare, Insolvency, Franchise, International, and Transaktion & Nachfolge (M&A and succession). Approximately 218 employees, including 61 licensed experts, deliver these services primarily to mid-market companies, family-owned businesses, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth individuals, with cross-border work channeled through Alliott Global Alliance membership. Revenue is generated via quote-based professional services fees on multi-year contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm is privately held by its partners, has no external institutional investor or parent, and has operated continuously since the 1930s.

Recent strategic posture is one of measured expansion: consistent lateral hiring from Big-Four competitors (EY, KPMG, Rödl), new partner promotions between 2023 and 2025, consecutive DATEV Digitale Kanzlei certifications for 2025 and 2026, and the formalization of dedicated cross-vertical service teams. The technology footprint relies on established DATEV-led digital workflows for tax/audit practices and the firm's own Digitales Fachteam to advise clients on cloud, ICO, and IT security—no proprietary software, API, or AI platform is offered. Distribution is direct and relationship-led, with marketing concentrated in professional referrals, content (tax/legal newsletters), industry events, and the Alliott network rather than digital demand generation.

Direct peers

• Ebner Stolz: German mid-market audit, tax, legal, and consulting firm serving family businesses and SMEs—the same core client segments as Audalis, with a comparable multi-disciplinary Wirtschaftskanzlei structure.
• Rödl & Partner: German-headquartered multi-disciplinary firm offering legal, tax, audit, and consulting with 40+ country footprint. Most direct peer to Audalis given similar integrated Mittelstadt-focused advisory model and Germany/Poland presence, though at materially larger scale.
• WTS Germany: German-founded tax advisory and consulting firm with strong international tax law focus. Peer because of overlapping Steuerberatung / international tax / corporate tax practice serving mid-market German companies.
• Flick Gocke Schaumburg: Boutique German Wirtschaftskanzlei focused on tax, audit, and corporate law for large enterprises and wealthy families. Closest comparable as a high-end, partner-led German multi-discipline advisory firm to Audalis's Wirtschaftsprüfung/Steuerberatung/Rechtsberatung stack.
• Baker Tilly Germany: Mid-market advisory network with a strong Germany practice spanning audit, tax, legal, and consulting. Direct peer because of overlapping Mittelstadt client base and integrated audit/tax/legal offering; Anna Silz previously worked at Baker Tilly Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft Dortmund.
• Noerr Partnerschaftsgesellschaft: German-led European law and tax firm with integrated advisory services and a similar Wirtschaftskanzlei-style multi-practice model serving Mittelstadt clients, including strong restructuring and corporate practices that overlap with Audalis.

Broad incumbents

• PwC Germany: Big Four firm with leading German audit, tax, legal, and consulting practices. Competes with Audalis across audit (Wirtschaftsprüfung) and tax engagements for mid-market clients but operates at vastly larger scale and brand recognition.
• Mazars Germany: Top-10 global advisory firm with a Germany practice covering audit, tax, and consulting for mid-market and large clients. Comparable as an integrated Wirtschaftskanzlei competitor but operates at significantly larger scale and broader international footprint than Audalis.
• BDO Germany: Mid-market audit, tax, and advisory network with a substantial Germany practice. Overlaps with Audalis on audit, tax, and consulting services for German SMEs and family-owned businesses but with a much wider national and international footprint.

Regional players

• Luther Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft: One of Germany's largest commercial law firms with strong mid-market M&A, tax-related, and restructuring practices. Comparable to Audalis's Rechtsberatung / M&A & succession offerings for Mittelstadt companies, particularly in DACH-region transactions.
