Schaffrath & Metzmacher has been a reliable partner for legal advice and representation for almost five decades and is now in its second generation. Our team operates throughout Europe from its headquarter in the city centre of Dresden.
Our mission is to represent the legal and economic interests of our clients in a cost-oriented manner and as quickly as possible. Our lawyers and specialist staff offer not only outstanding expertise, they are success-oriented and also reliable. Our top class standards are maintained through practical work and regular further training courses. In addition, we cooperate closely with experts in other related areas.
We are proud to be one of the oldest law firms in Dresden. We are very well connected and clients enjoy the benefits.
With us at your side, you will receive comprehensive legal advice from a single entity.

Trust and transparency
Working with clients is built on trust. Following an exploratory discussion in which we get to know each other we talk about issues, tasks and economic goals.
Should we convince you in this initial meeting, the next step is to agree on the fee. We are committed to offering you a balanced price-performance ratio. This transparency allows you to keep track of costs. There are no surprises.
Competence and fairness
We blend professional expertise and long-standing experience with social competence. The team at the law firm Schaffrath & Metzmacher takes the individual concerns of each client seriously and listens carefully. A high level of commitment is used to develop a solution that suits both legal and personal needs.
Also on offer is strategic and forward-looking consulting enabling you to have an overview of even complex situations. Applying dynamic working methods, we achieve short processing and completion times. Even when dealing robustly with the other side, we ensure fairness in our interaction with all parties involved.
As an alternative to legal representation in our specialist areas, you can also entrust us with out-of-court dispute resolution (mediation). This can save you both money and time.
The Saxon state capital of Dresden is not only an important service and administration centre, it is also home to a large number of medium-sized companies from a wide range of sectors. Dresden enjoys a reputation as a hub of high-tech industry and science beyond the German border. This is where the heart of the European microelectronics industry beats and where numerous start-ups thrive in the most diverse fields of innovation. This makes Dresden the economically strongest city in the Free State and at the same time the economic leader in East Germany.
Our clients appreciate the mixture of experience, competence and personal commitment. Many of them have therefore been represented by the law firm Schaffrath & Metzmacher for decades. Our office is run with a deeply personal touch, so you will find an atmosphere that deliberately contrasts with the business concept of much larger law firms. Our clients are the focus of our attention – and they know our team.
We provide advice in Germany and overseas from our location in Dresden. But we would also be happy to come to you and discuss your concerns on site.
A broad spectrum of clients has evolved over the decades. We represent, among others:
