LUTZ | ABEL RECHTSANWALTS PARTG MBB's expertise in private and public construction law is often called upon by contractors seeking advice on infrastructure projects. Most recently, this included the construction of clinics and motorways as well as related procurement issues, which are covered from a single source thanks to the group's close cross-practice cooperation. The team also oversees the construction of apartments and commercial facilities as well as an increasing number of contentious construction and procurement proceedings. The contentious component was underpinned in January 2024 with the salary partner appointments of Vera Lederer (in addition to out-of-court and judicial claim enforcement, also project-related advice) and Steffen Krämer (out-of-court and judicial private construction advice). In keeping with the team-wide focus, practice head Wolfgang Abel is also known for providing advice on construction-related matters for large-scale projects, including tunnels and motorways, while Michael Stoll, who specialises in private construction law, is often approached by construction companies to assist with structural, civil engineering and infrastructure projects, as well as in the context of sustainable projects. Ulrich Eix complements this with expertise in architectural law, which is regularly requested by planning offices.
