Four in-house lawyers from the pharmaceutical firm Boehringer Ingelheim teamed up with six attorneys from DLA Piper in April to teach law students in Zambia, and it is an experience that many of them say they will never forget.

“For all of us—students, faculty and lawyers—it was a success, an experience of a lifetime, to teach those students and help them understand the law,” said Sebastian Guntrum, in-house counsel at BI’s German headquarters.
