Others advise – LEGAL+ takes over.

Litigation requires taking responsibility.

Anyone who stands before a court cannot advise from the sidelines. LEGAL+ takes over – responsibility, leadership, decision-making. Every case is handled as a case of its own, with the same care with which one would defend one’s own interests. Taking over means not shifting risk back to the client but carrying it: with a clear position, thorough preparation and the willingness to assume responsibility in conflict – until judgment or until a solution that endures.

Where LEGAL+ takes over

LEGAL+ operates where commercial relationships need to be structured, enforced or defended — with a particular focus on two areas:

Mechanical and plant engineering.
Manufacturers, suppliers and subcontractors in the mechanical and plant engineering sector regularly face a particular risk position: they perform in advance, they carry the financing burden, and if a project derails, the pressure usually turns against them. LEGAL+ acts exclusively for the supply side — with contracts that hold up in the project and with enforcement when the conflict escalates.

International disputes.
When a foreign business partner fails to pay, a claim is filed from abroad, or a German judgment must be enforced across borders, more is required than general contract law. LEGAL+ combines litigation experience with international procedural law — from jurisdiction and service to cross-border enforcement. In mechanical and plant engineering in particular, one of Germany’s strongest export sectors, cross-border disputes are part of day-to-day business. This is precisely why the two focus areas of LEGAL+ come together here so naturally.

Why LEGAL+

Because LEGAL+ takes over.

LEGAL+ stands for more legal responsibility, personal involvement and efficiency. Your mandate is handled by an experienced litigator who personally conducts the case and thinks litigation and the underlying contracts together. This means for you in practical terms:
• fewer opinions
• more decisions
• more and faster results
LEGAL+ takes control of your case while you can concentrate on your business. This type of assumption of responsibility is what “Beyond Advice” stands for.

Degree of completion of the work

The standards relating to the right to refuse acceptance (Section 640 (1) sentence 2 BGB, Section 12 (3) VOB/B) state that acceptance of the work may not be refused due to insignificant defects. There is no statement on the required degree of completion of the work as a prerequisite for acceptance.

However, the question of what degree of completion the work must have reached in order to be considered ready for acceptance is very important, particularly in the case of plant construction, which is usually very complex.

Major deficiency in plant engineering

Answering the question of whether there is a significant defect is very difficult, especially in often very complex plant construction. The absence of major defects is the decisive prerequisite for acceptance. The latter has considerable legal and practical significance: the start of the warranty periods is regularly linked to this. In addition, the due date of a considerable part of the agreed remuneration generally depends on acceptance.

Formal acceptance under building law

Particularly in the case of complex (plant) construction projects, the contracting parties often agree – usually on the basis of the VOB/B – to carry out a so-called formal acceptance. The following article deals with the question of what such a formal acceptance is actually all about.
