International legal advice

In addition to the assistance that we provide to clients within Germany, we also specialize in cross-border legal advice. In particular in the interface Germany – Australia we have established ourselves as experts in the market. In addition we work professionally and with competence on engagements with a connection to the USA, Great Britain, Switzerland and Italy and can have recourse at any time to a stable network of experts abroad that has grown over the years.
We are committed to international associations such as the German-Australian-Pacific-Lawyers-Association (GAPLA) and the German Australian Business Council (GABC). Mario von Seelstrang is a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), an international network for legal and tax consultancy professions.
Areas of advice

> Doing Business

We support business owners and directors who would like to invest or start a business overseas. What legal form should the business have, what contracts must be entered into, how does the tax administration work abroad and in Germany? Our tax advisors and specialist lawyers for commercial and corporate law, employment law and tax law offer a complete advice service for all questions concerning “Business Abroad” and in doing so have recourse to long-standing expertise and our network of specialists abroad.

> Private Clients

Globalization means private persons also have points of contact abroad. Particular care is required here with the tax consequences and the applicability of overseas legal provisions. A holiday house abroad, a marriage solemnized internationally or migration from Germany can have serious consequences for inheritance law. We are specialists in the area of asset structuring, legal succession planning, and estate administration. We also support employees who, as part of a work posting, plan to stay or move abroad. Through our many years of experience with cross-border matters and our partner law firms abroad we offer our clients comprehensive legal advice.
