EXPERTISE

Areas of Law

In line with our focus on private commercial law, three major fields predominate within our practice:

• CORPORATE

  Corporate

   

  One of our main areas of focus is on advising and representing management board members, supervisory board members

  and managing directors, particularly if they are made liable

  for compensation (liability of directors and senior officers, including D&O insurance).

   

  Our practice further focuses on the law relating to companies of freelance professionals and disputes between shareholders or between shareholders and the company (shareholder disputes).

   

  Within the area of corporate law we also advise on the drafting of contracts.

• REAL ESTATE

  Real Estate

   

  In particular, we advise property developers, construction companies, architects and project developers in the traditional areas of private construction law and relevant related fields.

   

  Within real estate law our expertise extends to all issues relating to the life cycle of real estate, as well as renewable energy installations.

• LITIGATION

  Litigation

   

  We also conduct complex and extensive litigation when the matter in dispute falls outside of the area of corporate or real estate law. Representing our clients in court has always been of great importance to us.

   

  We therefore have considerable litigation experience. We ardently uphold our clients’ interests before both state courts and arbitration tribunals.

   

  We also act as arbitrators and adjudicators.

   

Our work in these demanding fields also enables us to provide

highly qualified advice and representation in other areas of civil commercial law. Our work therefore regularly covers the following areas:

›   Company succession

›   Distribution rights

›   Capital market law

›   Professional liability law

›   Art law
