We help you succeed.

We represent you in proceedings before ordinary courts, national and international arbitration tribunals as well as in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) proceedings. Our focus is on proceedings in the areas of commercial, contract and corporate law, including post M&A disputes, as well as D&O and professional liability matters including their implications under insurance law. We also advise and represent our clients on issues concerning banking and capital markets law.

We guide you to getting things right from the onset.

We assist you as early as during the stage of contract negotiation. This helps you to avoid the pitfalls of dispute-prone clauses and enables you to agree on suitable mechanisms to deal with possible future disagreements. We also prepare you, at an early stage, with a view to any potentially contentious scenarios, such as impending negotiations or conflict-laden general meetings, shareholder meetings or corporate decision-making. This enables you to better understand your options and to act swiftly and decisively if and when required.

We assist you in reviewing past events and transactions.

We provide legal advice during internal investigations to support retrospective appraisals. In addition, we also perform in-depth analyses of (partially) completed litigation or arbitration proceedings. We develop proposals on how to optimise your internal processes. Should this lead to the identification of wrongdoings on the part of third parties, we will assist you in asserting recourse claims and addressing insurance-related issues.

We adapt to your needs.

Our exclusive orientation towards contentious issues and our personal approach together with our (deliberately) lean organizational structure put us in an excellent position to provide premium and efficient advisory services and representation – also in cases where other firms might not be able to, or would not wish to, accept a mandate due to conflicts of interest, for example.

In line with the requirements of your specific case, a dedicated team will work together with renowned experts from other areas of the law. Again, we value the freedom of selecting exactly those specialists that our firm and you have come to appreciate as the best in their respective fields.
