Advice

Legal advice
with a transatlantic perspective.

The core of his practice is in Germany: corporate and business law, business succession, inheritance law and the long-term structuring of assets – from succession planning for real estate to the family pool, a jointly held family company.

To this he adds training in a second legal system. After studying law in Frankfurt, he earned the Master of Laws and the Juris Doctor at the University of Miami School of Law and worked for several years at a US law firm. As managing partner of a mid-sized pharmaceutical company, he also knows the business side of the questions on which he advises.
