Administrative law

State & citizen – We can provide assistance across the entire area of public construction law. We can represent your interests in administrative court cases throughout Germany and, where necessary, help with mediation processes.

We also provide services in the area of environmental law, soil protection and contaminated sites, the protection of historic monuments, law of public roads and related areas. We represent the rights of affected property owners, public bodies and companies at all stages of the planning process for public projects.

We offer comprehensive support and advice to local authorities, organisations responsible for projects, associations and companies – from the first planning steps, urban planning agreements and public law contracts to project services and implementation. The areas of utility services and waste removal harbour numerous potential points of conflict, including the regulation of water and sewage rates, refuse collection charges and costs for street cleaning. We have considerable experience in this area, both advising local authorities and representing citizens and interest groups. We can help you with statutes that comply with the German law on local taxes (KAG) and the German federal building code (BauGB), give advice on the law on taxes and charges, and help you defend administrative decisions in court.
