FAMILY & INHERITANCE LAW

Within families, problems are sometimes particularly emotional and exhausting. There are many questions that potentially need to be answered, also due to the different forms of the families themselves. We are happy to assist you in finding a consensual solution to eliminate various conflicts and advise you in matters concerning custody, contact rights, separation, divorce, alimony and other marriage and family law issues.

We will also represent you in court if necessary in order to assert your claims in the best possible way.  

In addition, uncertainties or disputes often arise in connection with the death of a relative, e.g. regarding probate. In order to counteract this, we are glad to be of assistance for instance in the preparation of testamentary dispositions or inheritance contracts.

We provide comprehensive advice in matters of inheritance law and represent you competently in court as well, for example in procedures regarding your inheritance or compulsory portion.

CIVIL LAW

Private Law - Civil Law - Contract Law

In addition to the core areas of civil law (family law, labour law, etc.), we are of course happy to advise you in other everyday matters. Especially a contract and the obligations arising therefrom form the basis of this area of the law, and regulate the relationship between private persons, respectively companies - whether this relates to buying/selling a good, servicing your watch, or when accepting the terms and conditions when making an online purchase. In your everyday life, it is commonplace to enter into different contracts.

We support you regarding:
• Questions concerning contractual matters;
• Contract reviewing, contract drafting, contract contestation;
• Drafting of general terms and conditions or in their review.

Our expertise also extends to the areas of liability, tort, insurance, and property law. Not only the legal relations amongst persons are relevant, but also those relating to personal property. Oftentimes, a wrongful interference with your goods may take place, or a third party may refuse to return your property. This can result in a damage to your property. We are happy to work in a solution-oriented manner regarding your specific concern.

LABOUR LAW

There are many questions that potentially need to be answered.

We prepare employment contracts and regulations, we also advise you on the rights and obligations both of employees and employers. We assist you in all matters relating to the ending of employment relationships (termination, reference, leave of absence, vacation, bonus, etc.). Furthermore, we represent you in court or negotiate with your contract partner.

TENANCY & REAL ESTATE LAW

Tenancy and real estate law are areas of law most people coming into contact with at some point.

In addition, questions often arise, for example, in connection with the construction of one's own home.

We advise both tenants and landlords in all matters of tenancy law. Our scope of activity ranges from the preparation of tenancy agreements and advice on rights and obligations, to disputes arising therefrom - be it, for example, disputes about rent increases or damage to the rented property - to the termination (notice of termination, etc.) of tenancies. In addition, we will also represent you in court in matters of tenancy law.

We are also happy to act for you in legal matters relating to the purchase and construction of real estate. We support you in the drafting and review of contracts as well as in any resulting legal disputes.
