Litigation and arbitration are an essential part of our client-focused advice in crisis and conflict management. Our specialists have many years of experience in all fields of business law, bring to the table comprehensive forensic insight gained in handling many national and international disputes, and have conducted arbitration proceedings according to the most relevant rules of arbitration (e.g., DIS, ICC, LCIA) and according to UNCITRAL rules. Handling highly complex issues is just as self-evident for us as assessing them from an interdisciplinary legal and business perspective.

Early on in the pre-litigative phase, we assess our clients’ prospects of success and risks of a law suit, Should other jurisdictions play a role in resolving cross-border disputes, we closely work together with the best law firms in the respective jurisdiction.

A strategic approach and effective conduct of proceedings figure prominently in our litigative activity. This includes meticulously selecting witnesses and experts, conducting hearings, taking evidence, and, if need be, negotiating settlements. We also attend to the enforcement of rulings and arbitral awards irrespective of the enforcement proceedings’ venue both, in Germany and abroad.
