I am an investor rights lawyer: I represent investors, shareholders, bondholders and institutional investors — in capital markets law, bond restructuring, insolvency and corporate law. In bond restructurings I stand exclusively on the creditor side, never for issuers. I advise and represent companies in other contexts — such as crisis, financing and shareholder disputes. This clear position is not a strategic choice but a conviction.
I handle every mandate personally — from the first assessment to the final judgment. No associates, no changes in personnel, no loss of information. For multidisciplinary questions I draw on a network of specialists I have built over twenty years.
I trained in Germany, studied US capital markets law in Washington D.C., completed my doctorate within the DFG Research Training Group of the Universities of Heidelberg, Mainz and Kraków, and for several years was a lecturer in banking law at the University of Potsdam. I speak German, English, French and Polish — because the clients I represent come from seven countries.
As board member of SdK and as expert witness to the Bundestag, federal ministries and the BKA, I bring a perspective that extends beyond any individual case: I know the law as it is being made — and I recognise the consequences earlier than most.
