This, as all, is history now.
I was back in Seattle/WA, though, researching on "The Legal Status of Research Vessels and Scientific Installations in International Law - and national law". But that's a different story...
I started my pratical training as a lawyer in February 1999 in Hamburg at the office of the public prosecutor;
continued at the civil magistrates court in Hamburg;
from 01 November 99 till 31 January 00 - as a part of my practical training - I was in Speyer/Rhineland-Palatinate at the Deutsche Hochschule für Verwaltungswissenschaften;
as of 01 February, I am back in Hamburg, continuing my practical training at the Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (Federal Agency for Shipping and Hydrography);
in May, June, and July I was clerking for a Judge at the Hanseatisches Oberlandesgericht (High Regional Court or District Court of Appeal) in Hamburg, Senate for Transport and Shipping Law;
August through November I was working at the law firm Lebuhn & Puchta, specialising in Transport and Shipping as well as Corporate Law and M&A.
Then there was the written part of my exam.
Spring '01 saw me at the European Commission and more specifically at DG Fisheries where I conducted research on marine protected areas within the EEZ.
and currently, I am in Tbilisi, Georgia teaching European and International Law at two different universities. You are welcome to visit the relevant site
