I organize the facts of the case, openly identify opportunities and risks, and propose a course of action that I believe is viable. Clients are not presented with alternative options but rather with a clear course of action\u2014along with the consequences that come with it.  <\/p>\n<p>I remain your point of contact, guiding your case from the initial consultation through to the final decision and taking full responsibility for it. Where a case requires it, I bring in experienced colleagues: other trial attorneys, attorneys admitted to the Federal Court of Justice, law firms abroad, and expert witnesses. I do not accept a case that I am not fully capable of handling.  <\/p>\n<p>Every legal proceeding has a background\u2014usually a contract. That\u2019s why I also draft contracts, drawing on my experience with legal proceedings: they should reflect your goals and hold up in the event of a dispute. In court, I defend the contracts I\u2019ve drafted myself.  <\/p>\n<p>For LEGAL+, taking over means: I stand by my work. In return, I expect clients to provide full and frank information, not to conceal mistakes and to be prepared to accept clear recommendations \u2013 even when they are uncomfortable. Only on this basis can I conduct cases in a way that stands up both in court and within your organisation.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"lp-section lp-technical\">\n<div class=\"lp-wrap\">\n<div class=\"lp-editorial-grid\">\n<div>\n<p class=\"lp-label\">Beyond the Legal<\/p>\n<h2>At LEGAL+, our commitment doesn&#8217;t end when things get technical.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"lp-body\">\n<p>In cases involving technical issues, it is not enough to handle the case solely from a legal perspective and leave the technical questions to others. A lawyer must familiarize himself with the technical context to the extent that he can identify the crucial points on his own: What is a plausible cause? Which assumptions remain open? What questions must be posed to the expert witness? At what point does an expert opinion fall short?    <\/p>\n<p>That is part of my understanding of taking on a case. A case is not handled simply by receiving technical input and then transcribing it into legal briefs. The case must also be understood and represented in court even when it becomes challenging, involves unfamiliar subject matter, or is highly detailed.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"lp-technical-quote\" style=\"background-color:#f3eee7!important;color:#382f2b!important\">\n<div class=\"lp-goertz-statement\" role=\"blockquote\" style=\"display:block!important;font-family:Roboto,Arial,sans-serif!important;font-size:clamp(18px,1.35vw,20px)!important;font-weight:400!important;line-height:1.7!important;letter-spacing:0!important;color:#342b26!important;opacity:1!important;visibility:visible!important;text-shadow:none!important;background:transparent!important;margin:0 0 27px!important;padding:0!important;border:0!important;max-width:950px!important\">\u201cMr. Meier-Greve impresses with his exceptionally thorough examination of the facts, his analytical mindset, and his willingness to delve into even complex scientific issues in great detail.
