We especially have many years of experience in matters resulting from merger and acquisition agreements, banking transactions and issues involving the protection of intellectual property rights and fair competition law. Our advice and representation in corporate law, contracts and commercial law and business law in general enables us to provide integrated, comprehensive legal services to our clients and their businesses.
The procedural law before the regular courts in Germany has undergone a major change in recent years. A case is generally decided in the first instance by a single judge. An appeal is now only permissible when based on errors in the application of the law. There is no second instance to try the facts. Accordingly, our many years of experience can be of considerable benefit for our clients when presenting their cases.
International litigation is increasingly decided in the final instance by courts of arbitration. The older partners in our firm have a great deal of practical experience in this field, both as arbitrators and legal counsel representing clients in arbitration. The proceedings are primarily conducted in English, but also in other foreign languages. The proceedings normally have their own rules which are clearly marked by concepts taken from the common-law systems and which accordingly require corresponding experience and language skills.
