My specialties
IT Law
Information technology law (“IT law”) concerns the large area of software, hardware and data processing, which is developing and changing faster than almost any other area. It is therefore easy to lose track here. We offer you sound advice and support you in all legal matters relating to your IT, including contract review and drafting, licenses, hosting and, last but not least, cybersecurity, to ensure that your IT business practices are legally sound and protected from malicious interference.
Company law
Company law covers the legal relationships between companies managed as partnerships (GbR, oHG, KG, PartG) or corporations (GmbH, UG, AG, SE, Verein), their shareholders and their executive bodies. Company law regulates and organizes the mostly similar but individual interests of these parties. If – as is often the case – the general statutory regulations do not adequately reflect the interests of the parties involved, they can use individual agreements and regulations to create a set of rules that deviates from the general statutory regulations and is tailored to their needs. Company law offers a great deal of freedom for this, which needs to be utilized. If disputes nevertheless arise between the company, shareholders or executive bodies, a forward-looking approach will prove its worth in the event of a company dispute.
More about me
Law is constantly on the move. The task of a lawyer is to advise on the pulse of the times.
Especially in IT law, copyright law and intellectual property law, there is often a lot going on. For technology-oriented companies, legal changes can have a considerable strategic and financial impact.
In order to be able to offer optimal legal advice, I keep an eye on developments and point out necessary adjustments for the future in good time.
Career
I studied law at the Universities of Freiburg and Tübingen. I then worked as a research assistant at the Chair of Civil Law, Commercial and Business Law, Multimedia and Telecommunications Law of Prof. Dr. Gerald Spindler at the University of Göttingen and as a publications officer at the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities.
During my legal clerkship in Cologne, I worked in the IP/IT practice department of an international law firm in Düsseldorf and London.
I was admitted to the bar in 2008. From 2008 to 2011 I worked at the law firm Bartsch und Partner and am a founding partner of the law firm Bartsch Rechtsanwälte.
