Direct Access for Western Germany: A Strategic Leap Forward
Starting 1 November 2024, activelaw is opening a new office in Düsseldorf—marking a significant step in our journey to become even more accessible and solution-oriented for our clients in western Germany. This expansion isn’t just about geography—it’s about strengthening our services where they are most needed.

Welcoming an Expert in Restructuring
We are proud to announce that Thorsten Prigge, a seasoned specialist in restructuring, turnaround strategies, and distressed M&A, is joining us to head the Düsseldorf office. Bringing an established team and top-tier mandates, Prigge will lead the development of our restructuring practice. “Thorsten Prigge’s decision to join us and build our restructuring capabilities is a major win. Both professionally and personally, he is an excellent addition to activelaw,” said Managing Partner Jörg Offenhausen.

Creating Value in Critical Situations
With this new location, we are positioning ourselves to serve existing clients more directly and efficiently, while also cultivating new partnerships—especially in times of crisis. Our focus: delivering real value to companies, banks, and investors during restructuring and transformation processes. We aim to offer pragmatic and future-proof legal solutions that foster long-term stability and growth.

Built on Proven Collaboration
The decision to open in Düsseldorf comes after months of successful cooperation with Thorsten Prigge. “The past months of intensive collaboration have proven that, together, we not only meet the high demands of our clients in challenging situations—we exceed them. The strength of this new unit lies in its execution power,” Prigge emphasized.

Strategic Significance for activelaw
This new office is a milestone we’re proud of. It reinforces our national reach, deepens our roots in North Rhine-Westphalia, and opens up opportunities across various industries—particularly in the restructuring arena. With our Düsseldorf team, we’re ready to take on new challenges and deliver the trusted activelaw standard where it's needed most.
