Jakob Zöchling graduated in Business Law and Economics at the University of Economics and Business Administration in Vienna. During these studies he spent a term abroad at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand.
From the very beginning, labor and social law has been his preferred field of law, which is why he focused on this area while still a student. Following this passion, Jakob also decided to specialize in labor law right from the beginning of his professional career.
Over the past few years, Jakob has specialized, among other things, in counseling clients in the broad field of labor leasing. In February 2023, Jakob successfully passed the bar exam with ‘very good’ results.
When not working, Jakob enjoys running or playing tennis, where he can fulfill his love for sports and recharge his batteries.
