An Interview with ORTHPARTNERS - JUVE 01/2026
JUVE spoke withORTHPARTNERS co-founder Dr. Robert Orth, who conceived and launched the firm together with Dr. Robert Manger, about the firm’s business model, the role of the limited partnership, andORTHPARTNERS’ planned growth. Twenty-seven years after founding his first law firm, he discusses his motivations for embarking on a new, modern path in legal consulting withORTHPARTNERS.
Highlights from our conversation:
- Flexibility as a career driver: AtORTHPARTNERS, we break down the “either/or” mindset. Our colleagues can be both partners and employees at the same time.
- Customized compensation: By combining a profit-sharing component with a solid base salary, we create partner positions that can be flexibly adapted to each individual’s life circumstances.
- True entrepreneurship: We encourage decision-making participation and entrepreneurial action, rather than simply maximizing profit per equity partner.
- ORTHPARTNERS is organized as a limited partnership and is therefore significantly more flexible than the traditional PartG mbB—for example, when it comes to additional services such as liquidation mandates as part of a comprehensive range of consulting services.
- Growth with a Focus: Since our launch in April 2025 with 20 attorneys, we have already grown to a team of 30 professionals. Our goal is to provide a robust full-service offering for small and medium-sized businesses, including specialized areas such as higher education law.
We are convinced that modern legal advice requires not only legal excellence, but also contemporary structures that foster talent and offer clients real added value.
