Greenberg Traurig Germany's economic and administrative law skills have recently benefited companies from the retail, infrastructure and health sectors seeking advice on market entry and large-scale projects, while the practice also continues to assist with administrative and constitutional proceedings, particularly for regional housing cooperatives and associations. The team has further increasingly been involved in budgetary law matters and is led by Martin Hamer, who is well versed in housing market regulation and constitutional law (also waste management, emissions and climate protection), and Dieter Neumann, who regularly advises on infrastructure and energy projects. Counsel Johann-Frederik Schuldt is also experienced in housing market regulation and cross-border environmental law issues.
