Dentons Europe (Germany) GmbH & Co. KG

Dentons is an international commercial law firm that supports companies on national and cross-border legal matters. The firm combines local market knowledge with international collaboration and helps clients develop their business, manage risks and implement complex projects. In Germany, Dentons is represented with offices in Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt am Main and Munich.

The advisory offering covers key areas of business law, including corporate law and M&A, banking and finance law, employment law, real estate law, tax law, competition law as well as restructuring and dispute resolution. In addition, there are matters relating to intellectual property, technology and data protection. The teams work across disciplines and factor in the commercial objectives as well as the particularities of the respective industry in their advice.

A defining feature of Dentons is its decentralised international organisation. The firm has no dominant global headquarters and brings together different legal cultures and perspectives. For clients, this approach means that local expertise can be combined with the resources of a worldwide organisation – for example in international transactions, regulatory matters or the development of new markets.

For digital transformation, Dentons advises at the interface of law, technology and business implementation. This includes technology contracts, data protection and cybersecurity as well as legal issues relating to artificial intelligence and connected products. The focus is on integrating new technologies into existing business processes and taking account of the associated legal requirements.

At Dentons, innovation also concerns the firm’s own service delivery. Specialised teams work on legal operations, document automation, data visualisation and AI-supported workflows. In the UK, Ireland and Middle East region, the firm is, among other things, driving forward the use of its generative AI tool fleetAI. Such initiatives combine technological development with questions of organisation, training and responsible application.

In doing so, Dentons regards artificial intelligence both as a subject of legal advice and as a tool for the further development of legal services. The firm deals with AI governance and the interplay of innovation, data protection, cybersecurity and professional responsibility.

In this way, Dentons brings the perspective of an internationally networked commercial law firm to the Legal Tech debate: how are digital tools changing collaboration with clients, the organisation of legal work and the requirements placed on legal advice? The focus is on practical solutions that combine legal expertise with technological understanding and economic
