Frequently asked questions related to civil law

This is usually done out of court first, by sending a letter to the liable party. If no agreement is reached, the claim can be enforced in court by filing a lawsuit.

Whether and how you can withdraw from a concluded contract depends on the individual case. In addition to rights of withdrawal or termination, a mistake regarding essential circumstances can also justify contesting the contract. We will review your contract, clarify whether a relevant ground for termination exists, and show you safe and effective ways to terminate the contract.

In the event of legal issues relating to contracts, property, damages, warranty claims, or claims for payment, seeking legal advice is advisable—especially in complex cases or where deadlines are ongoing.

Immediately! In warranty law, swift action is crucial – because strict deadlines apply. Those who wait too long risk losing their claims. We advise you early, examine your options, and ensure that your rights are protected effectively and within the prescribed time limits.

If your contractual partner becomes insolvent, this does not automatically mean that your claims are lost. The crucial factors are whether services have already been exchanged and whether you are entitled to special security or segregation rights. We examine whether your claim must be registered in the insolvency proceedings, whether you can demand the return of property, or whether you have a right of segregation or separation. Furthermore, we assess whether the contract can be continued or whether termination is possible or advisable. We support you in securing and enforcing your claims to the best of your ability.
