CMS
Client Satisfaction
CMS's practice acts integrated into the international media team and is led by contract lawyer Martin Gerecke and press lawyer Michael Fricke. The team advises large publishers, broadcasters, press houses and companies on freedom of speech and copyright issues, whereas both the reporting as well as affected parties are represented. Among the key strengths are the advice on crisis communication as well as the representation in litigation, including proceedings pertaining to copyright and reputation management. The contentious expertise encompasses disputes over critical political and economic reporting. The team is also increasingly active in digital content pertaining to personal rights violations, thanks to Gerecke's experience in the social media segment.
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
'The special thing about the law firm is its personalities. In negotiation situations or contentious proceedings, in addition to the extensive specialist knowledge that is to be expected at this level, the consultant's personality is invaluable. This applies both to third parties and internally.'
'Consultants who can adapt to the needs of their clients and support the company in the interests of the company are rarer than one might think. The personalities we work with achieve this perfectly.'
