With us, something is always in motion
There are moments and events which the partners and employees at HLB Stückmann love to recall. Some awaken wonderful memories, others are milestones within our company's history and some perhaps even make us a little bit proud. But we also look forward to what we have planned for the future – because anticipation is the greatest joy.
Christmas donation 2025
Miteinander stark e.V (Strong Together) Bielefeld
This year's Christmas donation will go to the association Miteinander stark e.V (Strong Together) in Bielefeld. The association offers valuable and immediate assistance to those experiencing challenging life situations. Our volunteers and members are committed to supporting those in need at eye level – with practical help, kindness and respect, without judging or interfering in their way of life.
Alumni Live – A Grand Reunion
It is important to us to maintain contact with our former colleagues – and that is exactly what our alumni gathering is for. This year, we were pleased to welcome 76 former team members. During engaging conversations, we exchanged views on developments over the past years and were delighted to see many familiar faces again.
The
magazine
In our current issue of BILANZ No4, we also take the time to reflect on the past year. We review the most important events of the previous year and provide you with an outlook on the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for us.
For entrepreneurs, taxes and accounting are usually not the most exciting topics – which is perfectly understandable. This makes it all the more important to have partners at your side who think exactly the opposite. In the fourth issue of our magazine, we would like to present some of our colleagues who not only see providing advice and auditing as mere tasks but go about them with passion, keen interest and ambition. We hope you enjoy reading this issue!

Together for a good cause
The international HLB Community Day took place on June 7, 2024. On this day, all HLB law firms worldwide are committed to a good cause. We at HLB Stückmann actively supported the Bahnhofsmission Bielefeld, an important contact point for people who need help - be it because they cannot manage a journey alone, are homeless or suffer from addiction problems. The mission offers support to anyone who needs it. // more
The
magazine
In our magazine we take a look back at 2022, a special year not only for us. We would not have thought that our 90th company birthday would fall in a year which, with the title "turning point", only hints at all that has changed in it.
Sustainability is a term that is currently being used almost excessively in the news. In our case, however, it certainly applies - the frequency with which we come into contact with it is both right and important. We are not only referring to the sustainability report, something we have been working on for years now. We have also taken action ourselves, grabbed spades, gloves, seedlings and wheelbarrows and travelled to the Teutoburg Forest. Why and how? Find out in this issue of our Bilanz magazine. We hope you enjoy reading it!

Sustainability
is very important
to us!
Sustainability is important to us in three ways: with regard to our work results, with regard to our trusting cooperation with our clients and each other and, of course, with regard to our environment. We have already implemented a number of ecological measures to protect and preserve them and have been climate-neutral since 2023 – read for yourself. // Sustainability

Das
Magazin
In our magazine we take a look back at 2022, a special year not only for us. We would not have thought that our 90th company birthday would fall in a year which, with the title "turning point", only hints at all that has changed in it.
For us, this means above all to do what is our most original task: to advise, to stand by our clients, to delve deeply into the matter, into the business processes and, in East Westphalian terms, not only to talk, but to tackle. Even and especially in challenging times, we develop and expand perspectives - for our employees, clients and with our Bilanz magazine. We hope you enjoy reading it!

The number of the year
We take stock of 90 years of company history. Our success story is not 90 years old, but above all young and geared towards a long future. At the 2022 summer party, the anniversary number 90 naturally played a very important role in the decorations - and it also enjoyed posing with colleagues in front of the camera.
“NO”
GAZING
OUTSIDE
The view is breathtaking. Yet Dr. Oliver Middendorf rarely stops to have a look. This is because his gaze would then remain fixed for too long, "and my desk is actually far too full for me to have the time to just look, to enjoy the view," says the 48-year-old in the Hamburg office of HLB Stückmann, as he does in fact look outside. // to the interview

The magazine takes you along to our colleagues at the Hamburg location and tells stories about the company that you may not yet know. This way we give you a glimpse behind the scenes so that you can get to know us a little better.

”My first
salary was
1,000 D-marks.“
Anyone encountering 80-year-old Dr. Ulrich Hüttemann at HLB Stückmann does not get the feeling that he has been a former employee for long. That is hardly surprising, the man from the Sauerland region with the grey-white hair did not officially retire until 2019 - at the age of 78! He was a partner at HLB Stückmann for 40 years, 20 of which he was a senior partner, "although that's not really much of an achievement". // to the interview
