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.<\/p>\n\n

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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1123,"template":"","class_list":["post-3193","taetigkeiten","type-taetigkeiten","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLiability Law - Niederm\u00fcller Rechtsanw\u00e4lte<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niedermueller.law\/en\/practice-areas\/accountability-law\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Liability Law - Niederm\u00fcller Rechtsanw\u00e4lte\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"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.
