The law firm Roden & Minden

The origins of the RODEN & MINDEN partnership date back to the firm founded in the 1950s by the late Fernand ZURN.

Fernand ZURN was a true lawyer in every sense of the word, a craftsman of the law who was totally committed to maintaining direct and personal contact with each and every one of his clients. Head of the Luxembourg Bar from 1972 to 1974, Mr ZURN also became involved in national politics as a Councillor of State, member of the litigation section of the Council of State, alderman of Luxembourg City Council and director of the State Savings Bank (BCEE).

Julien RODEN, who has been a lawyer since 1962, joined Mr ZURN upon being sworn in as a lawyer. Head of the Luxembourg Bar from 1993 to 1994, Mr RODEN achieved particular prominence in the area of personal injury claims, a little-known field at that time and one in which our firm has specialised ever since. Mr RODEN’s acknowledged expertise in the fields of banking, finance and commercial law resulted in 1992 in his appointment by the courts as liquidator of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, Luxembourg (BCCI). Jean MINDEN has been a lawyer since 1978 and joined ZURN & RODEN on commencing practice.

+ 70 years experience

Head of the Luxembourg Bar from 2004 to 2005, Mr MINDEN has extensive experience in the bringing of social security recourses and is one of the leading experts in calculating personal injury compensation. As a result, he has been made a member of the Committee for the compensation of victims of criminal injuries (Commission pour l’indemnisation de certaines victimes de dommages corporels résultant d’une infraction). His other areas of expertise include the law on liability, insurance law, employment law and business criminal law, amongst others.
