Julia T. Fuchs studied law at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. During her studies, she specialized in the legal fields of intellectual property, competition and media law. She completed her specialization seminar in patent law at the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition under Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Reto M. Hilty.

After graduating from her studies, Julia Fuchs completed her legal clerkship at the Higher Regional Court of Munich. As part of her legal clerkship, she worked at the Regional Court Munich I, the public prosecutor's office Munich I and the District of Upper Bavaria.

Most recently, she was able to expand her expertise in legal representation at the international commercial law firm Fieldfisher. During and after her legal clerkship, she worked in the practice groups “Privacy and Tech”, “Life Sciences Regulatory” and “Commercial Intellectual Property” in Munich and London.
