Work Department

Public & Regulatory Law Group

Position

Dennis Hillemann is a Partner in Fieldfisher´s Hamburg office and advises companies and public bodies on Administrative Law, in particular Administrative Procedural Law, Subsidy Law – especially Corona bridging grants – and Licensing Law, and represents them before the administrative courts.

As a specialist lawyer for Administrative Law, the focus of his work lies in advising and representing his clients in proceedings before the administrative courts and supervisory authorities.

Furthermore, he advises on legislative procedures and on the design of cooperation projects in a public context, especially in the Energy sector and Science. Many of the mandates he handles touch on issues of state, federal and European Union law and are therefore highly complex.

As part of his consulting services, he supports his clients with a deep understanding of processes in public authorities and ministries, develops the strategy in complex procedures with them and supports the digitalisation of the administration.

In addition, we are currently intensively advising on the energy crisis as well as on the Corona bridging aid, in particular on the recovery of aid as well as the preparation of final invoices.

He has represented clients in several hundred administrative (summary) proceedings before the German administrative courts and accompanied numerous cooperation projects and legislative procedures. He has also assisted clients in obtaining funding in the tens of millions.

He is recommended as an expert in Public Commercial Law.
