After twelve years at Beiten Burkhardt, Dr. Günther M. Bredow (48) will join Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek within the next months. Dr. Bredow will work as Partner at the law firm's Frankfurt office and will reinforce the areas of Corporate Finance/M&A, Private Equity, Banking and Capital Market Law. Dr. Bredow is also scheduled to assume a leading role in the further setup and development of the Frankfurt office and particularly promote the expansion of the Banking and Finance Practice Groups.
Dr. Bredow possesses many years of experience in the field of transaction counseling of both banks and of large and midcap enterprises, including public takeovers and take-privates. He handled a transaction volume of considerably more than EUR 25 billion in the last few years. Dr. Bredow's team has established a market-leading position in the German market, particularly in the areas of loan trading/portfolio transactions with transaction volumes far in excess of EUR 12 billion. In addition, he has advised private equity and real estate companies on legal and tax matters regarding acquisitions, restructuring and executive management board and supervisory board topics for many years.
Dr. Bredow focuses mainly on the banking industry and financial service providers as well as cleantech/renewables, primarily offshore wind. His clients from various different industries include several large German and foreign banks, which Dr. Bredow has advised for a number of years. "Dr. Bredow is one of the best and top revenue-generating Corporate Finance and M&A Partners in the Frankfurt market. His competence and experience in transaction law and his comprehensive network in forward-looking industries will benefit the entire law firm. With the assistance of Dr. Bredow and his team, we will be able to use the business potential that is available in Frankfurt am Main even better. We intend to further expand the areas of Tax, Banking & Finance and CleanTech in particular," commented Dr. Andreas Urban, Managing Partner at Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek.
"After twelve successful years at Beiten Burkhardt, I am looking forward to joining the new highly entrepreneurial and dynamic environment at Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek. From the beginning on, I have been especially intrigued by the opportunity to further develop and advance the Frankfurt office jointly with the Heuking team and the excellent colleagues. On the basis of a very entrepreneurial and at the same time agreeable law firm culture and the available structural strengths of Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek nationwide, I see high potential for development of the Frankfurt office," explained Bredow when joining Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek.
Dr. Günther M. Bredow will be accompanied by his team, which has worked for him for several years.
At the beginning of the year, Adi Seffer and Dr. Stephan Witteler had already joined the Frankfurt office as Partners. In addition, the Brazilian Desk was established, led by Denison Caldeiron.
