CON­TRACT DRAFTING

Con­tracts are the most fre­quently occur­ring leg­al rela­tion­ships in day-to-day life. Con­tract draft­ing touches on a mul­ti­tude of leg­al fields, which is why the tasks in this field of activ­ity are extremely var­ied. We respond to the leg­al com­plex­ity of this sub­ject mat­ter with the com­bined know­ledge of an inter­dis­cip­lin­ary prac­tice group formed of law­yers, spe­cial­ist law­yers and notaries.

Our expert team is com­posed of qual­i­fied spe­cial­ists in labour law, con­struc­tion and archi­tec­tur­al law, inher­it­ance law, fam­ily law and com­mer­cial and com­pany law. Each team mem­ber has many years of exper­i­ence in the draft­ing and nego­ti­ation of all kinds of con­tracts and brings spe­cial expert­ise to the group. Through con­tinu­ous train­ing in the fields of law rel­ev­ant to con­tract design, our law­yers are always up-to-date on case law.

Even in the case of dif­fi­cult ques­tions, we are cap­able of draft­ing leg­ally bind­ing and most of all feas­ible con­tracts — or of review­ing and appro­pri­ately tail­or­ing exist­ing con­tracts for you. With pre­cise and clearly worded con­trac­tu­al terms, nego­ti­at­ing skills and a keen sense of the situ­ation, we help you to avoid con­flicts before they arise or suc­cess­fully fend off unjus­ti­fied claims.

The ‘Con­tract Draft­ing’ prac­tice group provides advice and rep­res­ents cli­ents from the private and pub­lic sec­tors. Busi­nesses espe­cially value our leg­al sup­port in the enforce­ment of their eco­nom­ic interests as well as in restruc­tur­ing and suc­ces­sion arrangements.
