Comprehensive advice on all aspects of construction defects
The path that leads to construction defect litigation is complex. We advise our clients comprehensively from the initial claim assessment through to representation in court.
The course for a successful construction project is already set before construction begins. Many construction defects and execution conflicts arise because contracts are unclear or technical regulations have not been clearly agreed. We support you in checking the basis for claims and provide you with clear recommendations.
Early and professional preservation of evidence is crucial in order to enforce or defend against claims. We advise you on whether and when it makes sense to initiate court proceedings, obtain a private expert opinion or conclude an arbitration agreement. We also represent your interests vigorously in out-of-court settlement negotiations.
Whether enforcing warranty and compensation claims or defending against unjustified claims: Our law firm represents you in all construction litigation - including disputes over outstanding (partial) invoices, liability retentions and unjustly reduced or paid out claims for compensation for work. Our Litigation is characterized by detailed technical knowledge, strategic precision and efficient process management.
