TRADE AND COMMERCIAL LAW
A good contract provides the basis of a successful, profitable business transaction. We tailor contracts to your specific needs to avoid long discussions and ensure a fast contract conclusion. We pay attention to industry-specific risks and adhere to national and international business practices. We draft, negotiate and prepare general business terms and conditions, purchase contracts, supply agreements, license, cooperation and development agreements as well as quality assurance agreements that are customized to your business needs. We advise foreign clients in view of their business in Germany and Europe. We also offer advice in connection with liability and warranty issues as well as the enforcement or defense against any liability claims.
LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT LAW
We frequently represent clients in individual labor and employment law matters. We offer comprehensive advice on the negotiation, conclusion and termination of work agreements. We draft agreements with senior managers and design incentive programs for employees to encourage loyalty and longterm commitment. We also have ample experience in drafting agreements for freelance employees as well as temporary work contracts.
CONSTRUCTION LAW
We support our clients from the beginning of a construction project throughout the entire project. We draft construction contracts, deliver practicable acceptance protocols and design standard terms and conditions. We offer advice if there is any disruption in the process, e. g. in the event of changes in the zoning plan or if there are defects and delays. We also help in case construction companies are affected by insolvency. Our goal is to ensure there is no delay to the progress by acting timely and orderly without waiving the client’s rights. We also offer counsel on payments at all stages so that a project remains profitable for our client.
DEBT COLLECTION
Maintaining a liquid cash position obviously is very important to clients. We aim to minimize the risk of collecting debt by taking appropriate security measures at the time of the conclusion of the contract. We enforce outstanding debts by working out installment payment arrangements with the defaulting debtors. The goal is to work towards voluntary payment to avoid court proceedings and save time and money. With the help of our contact network we also offer to assist in the collection of debt internationally and ensure that the costs will be low.
INSOLVENCY LAW
In times of weak economy or recession it is critical for companies to retain practicable advice on insolvency issues. We assist clients in dealing with the insolvency of customers, suppliers and contractors and advise in the dealings with liquidators to secure the creditor’s rights. We also advise financially distressed businesses. In this case it is important to receive quick and competent advice to maintain the performance and competitiveness of the company. We offer individual counsel to management to provide perspectives and to avoid, or minimize, personal liabilities.
CLINICAL RESEARCH
We offer special expertise in the field of clinical research. It is important to secure legal assistance early on in a project to identify and take control of the high risks involved in this sector. We benefit from broad practical experience and knowledge of customs and practices in this sensitive business area. We provide reliable advice and trustworthiness when dealing with the involved parties.
LANDLORD AND TENANT LAW
We have extensive experience in the field of commercial rent as well as private property rent. We advise in disputes about termination, deposit, rent increase, and questions about utilities and general expenses as well as decorative repairs. Our scope of advice comprises draft in tenancy agreements, lease contracts and facility-management-contracts tailored to the specific requirements of objects and concepts. We lead negotiations in disputes and represent clients in court.
SALES AND DISTRIBUTION LAW
Good, professionally designed commercial agency and distribution agreements are critical to the well-being and growth of the company. Errors made in early stages may affect its performance and may cost a lot of money. We draft national as well as international agency and distribution agreements, taking into account EU laws. In the event a termination of an agreement is unavoidable, we advise the company early on to ensure that a strong position is maintained.
