As part of the "Breakfast Academy" lecture series, CERHA HEMPEL invites you to attend a monthly lecture on a topic relevant to your work and ongoing legal training, followed by a discussion.

Breakfast Academy

Each lecture starts at 9 am (lasting approx. 1 to 1.5 hours) and will be held at our meeting rooms at CERHA HEMPEL in Vienna. You will receive an email containing all the details together with your confirmation of registration.

We have made every effort to design the lecture series in such a way that each lecture can be recognized as a training event as per the guidelines for the vocational education of trainee lawyers (cumulation of lectures of one half-day each). Each participant is responsible for applying to the Vienna Bar Association for approval and recognition of the lecture; needless to say, you will receive confirmation of participation and seminar documents (presentations) from us.

Participation is free of charge. You can register by sending an email to golegal(at)ce…
