I specialize in legal cases in an international context, particularly in matters that relate to International, European, and German Law and Immigration. I am well-versed in the above legal systems and happy to assist you when it comes to finding solutions for conflicts between legal systems, legal assessment of transactions, and the enforcement of foreign awards. Please contact me if you require assistance in any of the following legal fields:
- Private International Law and Law of International
Civil Proceedings
~ Inheritance Law and Estate Settlements
~ International Trade Law, including cross-border sales contracts
~ Assertion and enforcement of foreign judgments
Main focus:Legal cases with reference to common law systems, with emphasis on NAFTA countries including the United States and Canada, for private individuals, organisations and companies.
- Citizenship (incl. Dual citizenship) and Immigration Law
My personal immigration experience and my professional activities as Practitioner of Foreign Law and Certified Canadian Immigration Consultant in a classical immigration country have given me a profound understanding of all matters related to immigration proceedings.
Since the amendment of the German citizenship law in the year 2000, I have been offering legal advice in all questions concerning dual citizenship and immigration.
Main focus:Immigration Consulting; retention of citizenship and naturalizations; acquisition and loss of the German citizenship
- Environmental Law
In the area of environmental law, the collision of diametrically opposed concepts is not uncommon. Often, solutions are not easy to come by, because a scientific-technical stance and the legally effective implementation of standards are difficult to reconcile.
In my professional capacities as a forester and lawyer I am familiar with both approaches and thus able to mediate between the disciplines and effectively assist you in finding adequate solutions. In the area of administrative law, my main expertise lies in the fields of German, European, and International Environmental Law.
Main focus:Consulting for companies and organisations, including sustainability issues (certification, auditing etc.).
I am also available to provide expert opinions in foreign proceedings for public authorities, the private sector, and colleagues abroad.
