We create value together
Plesner's IP team is a large team of dedicated lawyers committed to being the undisputed market leader and clients' preferred choice in IP law. We advise some of Denmark’s leading businesses, large multinational corporations, medium-sized Danish businesses, start-ups, and individuals.
You will be joining a professional community where we collaborate closely to create the best solutions for our clients – ranging from contract negotiations and regulatory matters to litigation. We also collaborate across Plesner's specialist teams to provide holistic legal advice.
As an assistant attorney or junior legal advisor in our IP team, your work will include:

Conducting legal research and analysis.
Who are you?
We are looking for an ambitious 1st year assistant attorney or junior legal advisor with strong legal expertise, excellent communication skills, and a collaborative mindset.
You are thorough, have strong attention to detail, and are solution-oriented and pro-active. You are motivated by creating the best solutions alongside equally skilled and ambitious colleagues.
You are a strong team player who understands that collaboration is the key to success, and you are able to communicate complex legal issues clearly and precisely in both Danish and English.
Focus on your training and growth
From day one, you will take on responsibility and will have the opportunity to refine your legal skills in a supportive and nurturing environment. We view the training phase as a learning journey, gradually increasing the complexity of your work while ensuring ongoing guidance from experienced colleagues.
You will be assigned a talent developer who will follow your progress, help expand your professional network, and assist in building both your legal and personal competencies – helping you grow into a value-adding advisor for our clients.
In addition to hands-on experience, you will receive feedback from some of Denmark's top legal specialists and have access to relevant courses and training to support your development. You will attend either the Danish Bar and Law Society (Advokatsamfundet) training programme for assistant attorneys, or the training programme for junior legal advisors.
