My specialties
Labor and Employment Law
We advise companies and executives on all aspects of employment law. We support you in drafting contracts, developing personnel and remuneration models and help you to develop tailor-made concepts for your company. Our clients appreciate the fact that we develop pragmatic and tailor-made solutions as a daily point of contact for management and the HR department.
Compliance
Companies, their executive bodies and employees have to know and observe a large number of sometimes complex rules. If violations occur, there is not only the threat of criminal and civil law consequences, but often also reputational damage and business losses. The scope of the rules, their complexity and the level of sanctions have been steadily increasing for years. At the same time, companies are losing money because they are not taking advantage of business opportunities due to excessive caution. With our many years of experience, we help you to identify and objectively assess risks without ignoring or over-dramatizing them.
Construction law
Construction and real estate law is characterized by a particularly high number of legal standards, whereby the boundary between legal and technical regulations is fluid. In addition, digital and sustainable solutions are also playing an increasingly important role here and are politically prescribed. In this complex environment, we provide you with comprehensive, targeted and specialized advice so that you are prepared for the legal challenges that arise in construction projects.
Real Estate
We deal with all important issues relating to real estate and advise our clients in particular on real estate transactions, project developments and asset management. Our team is proficient in the development and management of large-scale real estate projects – from planning to execution and sales through to realization.
More about me
In my work as a lawyer, the focus is on finding solutions. These solutions must be one thing above all: feasible and sensible in every respect.
Solving legal problems is always a question of strategy – your own (corporate) strategy and a legal strategy. Economic and legal risks must be avoided.
I support you with the right consulting strategy to solve your legal issues sensibly without losing sight of your strategy.
Career
I studied law at the Universities of Marburg, Canterbury (U.K.) and Freiburg. During my studies, I worked as a research assistant at the Max Planck Institute for Foreign and International Criminal Law. After graduating, I was a research assistant to Prof. Dr. Gerhard Hohloch at the Institute for Foreign and International Private Law at the University of Freiburg.
I completed my doctorate on the topic of liability law “The Prevention Principle of Tort Law” at the University of Tübingen under Prof. Dr. Gottfried Schiemann. During my legal clerkship, I worked at Thiedmann & Edler in Chicago, II, a law firm specializing in advising European clients in their native language.
I have been working as a lawyer since 2001. I am active as a speaker in my specialist areas and regularly publish articles and comments on current decisions.
