Construction Law

Ideally, a good contract is one that never needs to be opened. However, construction and infrastructure projects demonstrate that clear, customized regulations are crucial. Whether for the public sector or private industry, we support you from contract drafting to acceptance, ensuring legal certainty and practical applicability, and represent you should a dispute arise.

Public Commercial Law

The corporations of the “public sector” – federal government, states, municipalities, corporations derived from them – perform many of their tasks in their direct administrative structures. At the same time, the landscape of holdings held by these corporations demonstrates the success of organizationally independent task fulfillment. Reasons for organizational independence include clear division of tasks, financing of investments, personnel management and cooperation with public and/or private third parties. We provide comprehensive advice on the establishment, conversion and restructuring of public sector companies as well as on cooperation projects.

Our focus areas

  • Tailor-made legal form comparisons for the optimal organizational form
  • Preparation of articles of association, articles of incorporation, rules of procedure for management and supervisory bodies, and employment contracts for management bodies
  • Legal and tax advice and support for conversions within the meaning of the German Transformation Act (UmwG)
  • Structuring of cooperations, in particular inter-municipal cooperation according to the state laws on municipal cooperation
  • Process representation for supply and disposal companies
  • In-house training courses for supervisory boards
