Public & Administrative Law

We provide strategic advice at any transactional stage with authorities in cases that include both administrative and private law components such as environmental law, spatial developments, construction & energy, capacity, public procurement, competitive tendering, publicly-owned assets, permits, budget law and freedom of information.

Our team has strong transactional expertise and offers litigation support in all these different areas. It is important to us that our clients are well-informed and kept up-to-date on key developments through newsletters, publications and seminars.

We provide advice, support and can conduct proceedings in areas of both general and specific administrative law:

• Subsidies for businesses and institutions (including objections and appeals);
• Proceedings against acts and regulations (e.g. pharmaceutical and food industries);
• Enforcement activities against businesses from regulators (e.g. environmental, licensing and construction laws);
• Obtaining approvals and permits to undertake specific activities;
• Offering urgent assistance to enterprises in case of incidents or accidents (e.g. in the area of environmental law), where there is a threat of administrative or even criminal enforcement (whether or not together with our specialists from corporate investigations);
• Managing international sanctions in commerce; and
• Compensation for damage caused by an official body due to lawful acts.
