Constitutional law

Our unique expertise in the area of constitutional law is based on the constitutional law practice which was founded and continuously developed by the founding part­ners of the firm. Our activity before the Constitutional Court ran­ges from instigating actions based on constitutional law to proceedings establishing the compliance of legisla­tion with Germany’s Basic Law, to proceedings dealing with the organisa­tion of the State, such as proceedings involving a conflict between different emana­tions of the State. We regularly represent clients before the Federal Constitutional Court, the Constitutional Courts of the German Federal States and the Federal Administrative Court.
