Assistant  attorney

As assistant attorney at Kirk Larsen & Ascanius you will be part of a dynamic law firm with specific focus on the corporate sector. We are busy and set a high standard for our work – but we also prioritise a healthy work environment which always has room for humour and a helping hand.

We offer an individually scheduled education which offers you challenges and responsibility from day one.

Challenges matching your career wishes

As an assistant attorney with us you will, in principle, be attached to an attorney or a partner, who will ensure that you are assigned to interesting cases, which matches you and your career wishes. It is our wish that you quickly obtain responsibility and that you are independently in charge of most of the case administration and contact with clients.

The assignments will vary according to which department you will be attached. The assignments could for example include:

• Assistance in connection with business transfers
• Preparation of contracts
• Evaluation of various legal problem areas
• Handling of bankruptcy estates and reorganization
• Legal information search and evaluation of complex legal problem areas
• Reply to clients regarding various inquiries
• Participation in meetings
• Preparation of articles
• Presentations to clients or in connection with inhouse events
• Marketing-related initiatives

Common to all departments is that you will obtain a commercial approach to the assignments with a focus on creating results and value to our clients. We also attach importance to the fact that you are assigned to real and appropriate cases in connection with your compulsory legal proceedings examination.

Strong team spirit

You will be part of the strong team spirit which exists across all our departments. We arrange professional and social events on a regular basis providing the possibility of internal networking and sparring. We also like to go on trips abroad to strengthen both professional and social skill. Read more below and get to learn more about our workplace.

Personal and professional development

We value your personal and professional development highly and wish for you to have the best possible basis regarding your future career. We make use of inhouse education plans, and usually we plan an annual personal development review in order to discuss your professional ambitions and job satisfaction.

Apart from the fact that you will, of course, participate in the Danish Bar and Law Society’s education for assistant attorneys, you will also be able to participate in other relevant external or inhouse courses or course programmes. Such programmes are planned individually for you and could e.g. include intensive English lessons, a course programme on areas of specialisation, coaching conversations with focus on sale and value creation for our clients.

Through our membership of the international law firm network LAWorld, you will have the opportunity for an exchange student stay with a foreign law office provided that this is convenient with the career plan scheduled for you. Furthermore, it is also possible to be posted with an external company.

Terms of employment 

We offer attractive terms of employment and a competitive salary.
