Quantity of attorneys falls short of federal benchmark

In the vibrant landscape of Germany's legal profession, two cities stand out for their distinctive lawyer densities: Siegen and Frankfurt am Main.

According to data from "Jurafuchs", Germany boasts over 188,000 lawyers in total. Among these, more than 60% are male, a trend that is also reflected in the city of Siegen, where the proportion of female lawyers is not specified.

Siegen, known for its picturesque charm, has a lower density of lawyers per 1000 inhabitants compared to the national average. This is in stark contrast to Frankfurt am Main, which boasts a density of nearly 18 lawyers per 1000 inhabitants, the highest in the country.

When it comes to the most common names among male lawyers in Germany, Michael, Christian, and Thomas top the list. Among female lawyers, Maria takes the lead.

The city of Stuttgart, while not explicitly stated as having the highest number of female lawyers per 1000 inhabitants, is noted for its high density of highly qualified lawyers. This could suggest that Stuttgart may hold a leading position, at least in terms of highly qualified female lawyers as well.

However, the national average for the density of lawyers in Germany, as well as the proportion of female lawyers in the country as a whole, remains unspecified in the search results.

This snapshot offers a glimpse into the distribution of lawyers across Germany's cities, providing a starting point for further exploration into the country's legal landscape.
