Accountability Law

Company bodies have to make a large number of decisions and their activities entail a large number of risks that are often not easily recognizable. If a company has suffered damages or losses, the question often arises as to whether the actions and omissions of a company’s executive bodies were in accordance with their duties towards the company or whether a negligent executive body is liable to compensate the company for the damages and losses incurred. Damage to a company is often caused by the misconduct or inactivity of its executive bodies and often involves considerable sums of money.

We advise companies and their executive bodies on the assertion of and defense against claims in the area of directors’ and officers’ liability and also carry out preventive risk analyses.
