Contracts and Standard Terms

Contracts and standard terms and conditions are the basis of all entrepreneurial activity. The negotiation and legal formulation of contracts not only secures the company's own legal position; it facilitates the enforcement of resulting claims in the first place.

We provide you with comprehensive support in all aspects of contract law, starting with advice with regard to the choice of contract, support with contract negotiations, the development of the company's own or the checking of contractual formulations of third parties to effective signing of the contract.

In the process, we consider all issues that could be relevant for the legal drafting of your contracts:

• Factory Equipment and Environmental Law
• Distance Selling Law
• Corporate Law
• Commercial Tenancy Law
• Sales Representative and Authorised Dealer Law
• Licence Agreement Law
• Trademark and Copyright Law
• Online and IT Law
• Sales and Franchise Law
• Service Agreement Law

Irrespective of the legal field concerned, we have the knowledge and the experience to provide you with comprehensive advice in the watertight drafting of your contracts.

In addition, contract monitoring has grown considerably in importance due to the ever more complex changes in the law. We determine the status quo of the contracts in your company and check and revise individual contracts as required, thus guaranteeing that your contracts are legal.
