What Wagemann + Partner does

Wagemann + Partner is a German professional services firm operating as a Partnerschaftsgesellschaft mit beschränkter Berufshaftung (PartG mbB), providing integrated tax advisory (Steuerberatung), auditing (Wirtschaftsprüfung), and legal advisory (Rechtsberatung) from offices in Berlin (headquarters), Hamburg, and Düsseldorf. Established approximately 50 years ago, the firm employs more than 100 credentialed professionals — including Steuerberater, Wirtschaftsprüfer, Rechtsanwälte, and a US CPA — covering a broad service portfolio ranging from statutory financial statement preparation and audits under HGB, IFRS, and US-GAAP, to cross-border tax structuring, succession planning, M&A due diligence, and industry-specific advisory for healthcare, hospitality, e-commerce, and startups.

The firm's technology stack centers on the DATEV software suite for accounting and tax preparation, complemented by a ShareFile (Citrix) cloud portal for secure client document exchange, with ISO 9001:2015 quality management certification held since 2000 and DATEV Digitale Kanzlei 2025 recognition supporting digital, paperless workflows. Service delivery combines in-person advisory at the three physical offices with nationwide digital engagement, enabling reach beyond its geographic footprint.

Wagemann + Partner generates revenue through professional services fees across recurring compliance engagements (annual financial statements, tax returns, statutory audits), project-based mandates (due diligence, restructuring, succession planning), and specialized advisory. The primary customer segment is the German Mittelstand, supplemented by international corporations, US-Germany cross-border clients, HNW individuals and families, and startups/e-commerce businesses. New client acquisition runs through direct relationship-based sales, professional referrals, content marketing (blog/Fachliches), and SEO-optimized web presence; membership in the Integra International network supports cross-border referrals. Initial consultations are billed at 300 EUR plus statutory VAT, with ongoing engagements quoted on a case-by-case basis.
