Draxler Rechtsanwälte KG

Draxler Rechtsanwälte KG is an Austrian law firm headquartered at Reichsratsstraße 11 in Vienna's 1st district, a location it has occupied since 1948. The practice traces its origins to 1929, when Dr. Ludwig Draxler sen. opened a law office at the Wiener Parkring. Over nearly a century, the firm has remained a family-led practice, now in its third generation under Mag. Ludwig Draxler jun., who took over in 2012. The firm provides legal services to clients in Austria, with a stated emphasis on maintaining high-quality representation while handling cases efficiently and with minimal stress for clients. Its office is situated near the University of Vienna, the City Hall (Rathaus), and the Palace of Justice (Justizpalast), placing it at the center of Vienna's legal and administrative district. The firm operates as a Rechtsanwalts-Sozietät (law firm partnership) since 1996 and as a Kommanditgesellschaft (KG). It is a private, family-owned practice rather than a publicly listed company. The firm's history includes a notable interruption during the Nazi era: Dr. Ludwig Draxler sen. was arrested on 12 March 1938 for his anti-Nazi activities, and the practice was taken over by regime-loyal lawyers until after the war, when it was returned to him. The firm's website and Wikidata entry confirm its identity and location.

The firm now known as Draxler Rechtsanwälte KG was founded in 1929 by Dr. Ludwig Draxler sen., who opened a law office at the Wiener Parkring. He soon moved the practice to Riemergasse. In 1936, Dr. Draxler sen. was appointed Federal Minister of Finance of Austria, and during that period a deputy managed the firm. On 12 March 1938, Dr. Draxler was arrested because of his anti-Nazi activities. In the following years, the practice fell into the hands of lawyers loyal to the Nazi regime. After the end of the war, Dr. Draxler sen. had his practice restored to him. He first relocated it to Lothringer Straße and finally, in 1948, to Reichsratsstraße 11, directly behind the University of Vienna, near the City Hall and the Palace of Justice, where it remains today. In 1971, Dr. Ludwig Draxler joined his father's law firm as a partner and took it over after his father's death in 1972. From 1996, the firm was continued in the form of a Rechtsanwalts-Sozietät (law firm partnership). In 2012, Mag. Ludwig Draxler jun., grandson of the founder and son of Dr. Ludwig Draxler, took over the firm. He has stated: "We do not only want to meet the growing flood of norms resulting from the internationalization of law. Our main concern is to maintain client care at the highest level – with faster and, for our clients, stress-free handling of their legal cases." The firm continues to operate from its historic Vienna location.
