We provide our clients with support during pre-litigation and litigation itself and, when necessary, with the enforcement of court decisions.

Such disputes can arise in the course of the performance of agreements, the termination of established business relationships and also outside any contractual relationship, such as in the case of unfair competition, passing off or disparagement.
