Orrick Hölters & Elsing is the result of a successful merger in 2008 of Orrick with established German law firm, Hölters & Elsing. With a 20-year history in the domestic legal market, Hölters & Elsing was recognized at that time as one of the highest quality, independent national law firms. Together, we bring a global outlook, commercial focus and proactive client service to one of the most active and highly regulated markets in Europe. In 2011, we opened a Munich office, adding significant depth and experience in the technology industry and further expanding the firm's corporate, investment funds, capital markets and M&A and technology transactions capabilities. Today, we are fully and seamlessly integrated into Orrick's global platform of 23 offices spanning the United States, Europe and Asia, building upon Orrick's 150 year history and reputation as one of the world's leading law firms.
