SERVICES

We advise our clients on a wide range of legal issues in commercial and corporate law. As part of general commercial law advice, we support our clients in their domestic and cross-border business activities, for example in connection with framework, distribution, license and service agreements and the drafting and revision of general terms and conditions as well as general sales and delivery conditions. In doing so, we always pursue an entrepreneurial approach that prioritises clear added value for the company. As part of corporate law advice, we support the entire process of choosing or founding a company as well as provide advice in all general corporate, stock exchange and corporate law issues and advise management bodies on liability and responsibility.
We focus on resolving conflicts and problems that may arise between trading partners. Our spectrum ranges from mediation to legal representation in legal disputes. Through the link with our other focus in “crisis management,” we also support companies, investors and entrepreneurs in acute economic crises, which usually arise ad hoc due to unforeseen events such as sanctions, armed conflicts or pandemics. We help with words and deeds so that those responsible in troubled times can make prudent decisions based on secure legal knowledge with a clear view.
In the area of international payments, we advise on specific legal issues relating to cross-border payments. Our expertise lies in European money laundering law and payment services law. Furthermore, we create and check the corresponding contract documents for our clients and negotiate them with banks, authorities and companies.
Embargoes and sanctions limit the freedom of foreign trade with certain countries. In addition to personal sanctions (terrorism lists), there are extensive international restrictions on the export and import of goods and services and in the finance and insurance sectors in various countries. In the event of embargo violations, companies face high fines and the individuals responsible face severe penalties.

Our main areas of activity in this area are advice on export bans and licensing requirements, investment, insurance, payment and financing restrictions and compliance.

Currently, the US and Russia sanctions and the Iran embargo are of great importance for companies. Sanctions related to people, goods and services are constantly being added to and updated here. We follow the changes relevant to our clients very closely and advise on the necessary measures.

Another area of expertise is the cross-border enforcement of claims by way of foreclosure, with a focus on Germany and Switzerland. In addition, we support private individuals, companies and authorities in all general matters relating to late payments or debt collection and insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings.

“Problems can never be solved with the same mindset that created them.”
