At ARQIS we cultivate corporate, ecological and social responsibility.

20 Jahre Big Law Boutique: Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen

Podcast with Dr. Shigeo Yamaguchi and Dr. Friedrich Gebert

What does it mean to be a Big Law Boutique? How do focus groups come about and why is entrepreneurial thinking so important for lawyers? What role do ownership and mindset play when starting a career? And how does a law firm position itself between specialisation and transaction strength?

 

Dr. Shigeo Yamaguchi, Senior Partner, and Dr. Friedrich Gebert, Managing Partner, discuss the development of ARQIS since 2006, its growth into a unique big law boutique and the strategic realignment of its leadership in the latest episode of the podcast "Irgendwas mit Recht" (German).
