The articles in the newsroom arise from my daily legal practice in contract law and in litigation. They address recent court decisions, legal developments, and contentious issues—and highlight the lessons they offer for contract drafting and litigation strategy.
The articles offer a compact overview and are intended to provide clients with guidance on how legal issues in contract law and in the enforcement of claims in court can be resolved in practice. They are no substitute for individual legal advice.

In the business world, decisions have to be made all the time. Many such decisions consist of having decided on a specific partner for a project, with whom a corresponding contract must then be concluded. The frequent problem is that there is a lack of time or simply a lack of certain clarifications of a factual and/or legal nature to be able to conclude the contract “ad hoc”. This is where the preliminary agreement comes into play, which allows the parties to enter into a binding agreement immediately, even though there are still open points that need to be clarified.
