Profile

Dr Kirsten Schümann-Kleber, LL.M. is a lawyer and partner at GÖRG Partnerschaft von Rechtsanwälten mbB in Berlin, specialising in financial restructuring advice as well as financing and refinancing transactions. 

With an LL.M. from the renowned Emory University in Atlanta, GA, her admission as a lawyer in Berlin and as an attorney-at-law in New York and a doctorate in the field of private international law, she brings to her work not only extensive knowledge of German law, but also a special focus on cross-border transactions. Dr Kirsten Schümann-Kleber advises national and international companies and investors in complex financing and refinancing transactions and supports various stakeholders in crisis situations or advises in connection with insolvencies of their contractual partners. The mandates she advises on are predominantly cross-border in nature. 

She co-organises the Berlin Restructuring Forum for GÖRG twice a year and regularly appears as a speaker or moderator at national and international events.

Dr. Kirsten Schümann-Kleber's expertise and her memberships in renowned legal organisations such as the Insolvency Section of the International Bar Association, which she also co-chaired a few years ago and has since continued to actively support as a senior board member, as well as TMA Germany, make her a sought-after contact for complex mandates in the area of financial restructuring and international financing and refinancing transactions.
