About me

With my 25 years of professional experience in corporate law, I have gained a wealth of experience in a wide variety of commercial contexts, including in the examination of contracts, in contract negotiations, in the drafting of contracts and, of course, in the representation of my clients in and out of court. As a certified specialist in commercial and corporate law, I will be happy to work out a customised solution for you, taking into account your legal and economic interests, if necessary also effectively in litigation. My clients receive strategic advice and guidance through complex legal contexts. The spectrum of my often long-standing client relationships includes companies, private individuals and the public sector.
