Which Viennese solicitor can assist me in negotiating individual contract clauses?

What can I do if my contractual partner breaches their contractual obligations?

Does it make sense for me to agree to arbitration in order to achieve a quicker and cheaper solution in the event of a dispute?

In most cases, average cases do not require comprehensive masterpieces of legal subtlety in line with Anglo-American practice, which are primarily beneficial to the budget of the drafter. Conversely, naive trust in a private or business partner can come back to haunt you later, and forward-looking contractual protection can be essential. We value a healthy middle ground, clear, practical and pragmatic solutions. Contract law is an interdisciplinary subject: it can focus on family law, inheritance law, corporate law or real estate law.
We have lawyers with specialist knowledge in all of the above areas (and more) who have comprehensive expertise in both the drafting of contractual agreements and in disputes arising from contracts.
We work quickly and effectively and are at the cutting edge of technology, providing you with timely results at fair prices.
