GÖRG is strengthening its partnership with a new addition: Dr Kai Tumbrägel, a recognized expert in the fields of Intellectual Property (IP) and Commercial, will join the firm as an equity partner as of 01.10.2024. At the Cologne office, Dr Kai Tumbrägel will further expand the IP/Commercial practice together with the partners of the practice area.
Dr Kai Tumbrägel is known and recommended for his comprehensive expertise in all areas of intellectual property, unfair competition, media and sports law. His clients, including leading companies from the consumer goods, fashion, technology and media sectors, value his competent advice both in and out of court. In addition, Dr Kai Tumbrägel has extensive experience in general commercial law, in particular in drafting contracts. The experienced lawyer returns to GÖRG after his time at DLA Piper, where he worked as an equity partner. He began his professional career there with Dr Wolfgang Prinz, who has since retired.
Dr Kai Tumbrägel will be accompanied by Dr Stephanie Reuvers (Counsel) and Dr Ricardo Vocke-Kerkhof (Associate) as well as Wolfgang May (Of Counsel).
“We are delighted to welcome Kai Tumbrägel back to GÖRG”, explains Dr Marcus Richter, member of GÖRG's Executive Committee. ”His return strengthens our IP and commercial practice and underlines the firm's continuous efforts to further expand these practice areas.”
Dr Oliver Spieker, GÖRG partner and head of the IP/IT/Commercial group, adds: “With Kai Tumbrägel, we are not only gaining a respected IP lawyer, but also a personality who perfectly complements our range of advisory services. His return to GÖRG is a clear signal to our clients that we will continue to focus on the highest level of expertise and excellent local service and strengthen our offices in the areas of IP/IT/Commercial.”
With the addition of Dr Kai Tumbrägel and his team, GÖRG's IP and IT legal practice will grow to around 30 lawyers.
