Where the information comes from
LawyerDB starts from the official register of the German Federal Bar and adds languages, focus areas and reviews from other sources. There is no advertising, and nobody can buy a better position. The directory lists 159,867 lawyers in 5,051 places. 43,994 of them list English.
The name, admission, Fachanwalt titles and firm address come from the official lawyer register of the German Federal Bar. Every profile says when we last checked the entry there. We take languages, focus areas and links to profiles on other sites only when the name matches and also the address, the firm or the phone number. Each language is shown with its source. The page How we rank explains how the order works. We do not list in-house counsel (Syndikusrechtsanwälte), because they may advise only their employer.
Names, titles and the register's wording stay in German, because they are official. Everything around them is written in English.
