CBH Rechtsanwälte specialises in advising public clients and in particular city authorities on public infrastructure construction projects, including schools, although another focus lies on architects' and engineers' contracts. Particular attention is paid to climate neutrality and sustainability criteria; a consulting segment that is covered by, among others, practice head and private construction and architects' law expert, Carolin Dahmen. Markus Vogelheim is one of the key contacts for matters relating to architects' and engineers' law and is also experienced in arbitration proceedings.
