Capital market law
Our approach
We have a deep understanding of the specific nature and pace of change in the capital markets. We prioritize clear and partnership-based communication at every stage of cooperation. We treat our clients and their matters individually, designing solutions tailored to their needs and long-term goals. We continuously monitor changes in regulations and keep our clients informed. This enables them to effectively seize emerging opportunities and mitigate potential risks.
For whom?
We support companies that are already listed as well as those planning an IPO or the issuance of securities. We assist companies, management boards, supervisory boards, and shareholders in corporate disputes, mediation, and arbitration.
Capital markets law is not just about regulations – it is above all a tool for building trust, transparency, and stability in investor relations.
From the very beginning of our firm’s existence, we have been working with the public listed companies. We are proud that for over 20 years we have been able to genuinely support their growth and contribute to their continuous development.
