Frequent questions on advice and process
Many matters start from an uncertain position: outstanding claims, deadlines, commercial pressure, or the question whether an insolvency-law duty already exists. The following answers give a first orientation on what is typically clarified in a discussion.
When is insolvency-law advice useful?
At the latest when interruptions of payments, attachments, tax or social-security arrears, cancelled credit lines or several dunning letters coincide, the position should be reviewed in an ordered way. For managing directors this also concerns filing duties, documentation and liability risks.
Which documents help in a first discussion?
Current liquidity overviews, open receivables and payables, relevant contracts, correspondence with banks or creditors, and court or authority letters are helpful. If not everything is complete, a first sorting can still be useful.
What is clarified first?
The first issues are deadlines, responsibilities and whether immediate action is required. Then the commercial starting point, legal risks and possible next steps are classified. The aim is a reliable order of work, not a premature one-size-fits-all solution.
Can the firm advise debtors and creditors?
Yes, depending on the mandate the firm assists companies, individuals, creditors and other parties. Before a mandate is accepted, conflicts of interest are reviewed and the role the firm can take in the specific situation is clarified.
How does first contact work?
An enquiry can be made by telephone or email. Urgent deadlines should be mentioned at once. Then it is clarified what the matter is about, which documents exist and whether an appointment for further review is useful.
How are costs discussed?
The scope of lawyer work depends on the matter, the deadlines and the effort required. Cost questions are therefore discussed transparently before a further instruction. For a first classification it helps to describe the subject and the urgency as clearly as possible.
If deadlines are already running or letters from a court, tax office, social-security institution, bank or creditor have been received, please mention this expressly in your enquiry.
