Tigges Rechtsanwalte Und Steuerberater Partnerschaft Mbb

What Tigges Rechtsanwalte Und Steuerberater Partnerschaft Mbb does

TIGGES Rechtsanwälte und Steuerberater Partnerschaft mbB is a Düsseldorf-headquartered German multidisciplinary advisory firm operating as a Partnerschaftsgesellschaft mbB, providing integrated legal and tax advisory services to corporate clients, entrepreneurs, and private individuals. The practice spans corporate/M&A, tax, transport and rail law, IP, IT law, competition and antitrust, employment, real estate, insolvency, inheritance, and art law, with the firm organized into a group structure comprising TIGGES Tax (tax advisory), TIGGES DCO (digital compliance and data protection), TIGGES Polen (Polish Desk), and JurCapital (specialized finance/distressed services). A 12-member multilingual Polish Desk and an Austrian corridor focus support cross-border mandates into Poland, Austria, and increasingly the Netherlands via the Dealsuite.com partnership.

The firm operates from four offices — Düsseldorf (headquarters), Berlin, Warsaw, and Katowice — staffed by 30 legal professionals (Berufsträger) with dual qualifications in German, Polish, and Austrian law. Its technology stack is minimal: the corporate website uses the Matomo analytics platform, and there is no evidence of proprietary platforms or AI/ML products. Monetization is delivered through hourly and project-based professional services fees across advisory, transactional, litigation, and compliance engagements, with the VC & Startups practice and TIGGES DCO AI competency training representing relatively new revenue lines aimed at diversifying beyond traditional Mittelstand and HNW mandates.

Externally, TIGGES has secured repeat recognitions including a 2025 Legal 500 ranking, 2026 Handelsblatt/Best Lawyers listings, and JUVE nominations, with Managing Partner Georg Schmidt serving as Honorary Consul of Austria for North Rhine-Westphalia since June 2019 and the firm listed neutrally on the UPC Patent Mediation and Arbitration Centre (PMAC). Strategic positioning is anchored in the German-Polish and German-Austrian cross-border corridor for mid-market companies, complemented by rail transport law and digital compliance as identifiable niche specializations.
