General client information – Optimal case handling

The success of your legal case does not depend solely on the efforts of our law firm, but also requires your active cooperation.

The statutory procedural provisions contain risks that are critical to the success of your case, which we would like to inform you about here:

All court and official documents must be forwarded to our law firm without delay. Failure to meet deadlines can result in complete defeat in the proceedings!

The preparation of objections, legal remedies, and appeals often requires extensive preparation and, in some cases, multiple revisions. For this reason, our law firm is generally unable to accept mandates that are issued shortly before the deadline, as briefs prepared under considerable time pressure carry an increased risk of error.
 

This is particularly true in light of the Code of Civil Procedure, according to which all essential facts must be presented at the beginning of the proceedings. Late submissions may be rejected by the court or result in considerable costs. In appeal proceedings, new submissions are generally excluded, meaning that omissions from the first instance cannot be corrected in the second instance. Therefore, all available and relevant documents should be sent to us – preferably by email – before the first consultation.
 

Any changes to your address, telephone number, or email address during an ongoing mandate must be notified immediately, ideally in writing. Our law firm must be able to reach you promptly at all times.
 

Court and official orders must be fulfilled carefully and on time. The late submission of evidence without sufficient justification may lead to its rejection and, in the worst case, to the loss of the case.
 

Deadlines should be met in such a way that the necessary applications can be processed by our law firm at least 5 working days before they expire, as the preparation and processing of your information and documents also takes time. If evidence, information, or advance payments are not provided or are not provided in time, the corresponding evidence will not be taken, which can lead to the complete loss of the case.
 

Please understand these explanations as a service in the interest of the best possible handling of your request.
