Career

My practice lies in the fields of real estate, construction and the environment, with a focus on clients active in real estate and construction or the food, agriculture and forestry sectors. My view is that real estate is one of the keystones of the economy and the best long-term investment.

Business-minded in legal matters. Real estate is not merely my field of legal practice but also a personal investment vehicle and hobby. I evaluate both the business and legal sides of client matters in order to provide the most effective and most efficient legal solutions.

Effective negotiation skills. I owe good negotiation skills to experience from participating in many real estate-related transactions, as well as developing work and out-of-work relations. In negotiations, I follow the principle of providing all arguments with both legal and logical reasoning and leaving emotions aside. And you always have to be sure that the opposing party understands.

In-depth knowledge of real estate transactions. As a member of our firm’s Real Estate and Construction sector group, I have participated in many types of real estate transactions. The experience, legal knowledge and best market practice gained helps me to provide clients with the best legal advice, particularly in matters related to territorial planning, real estate lease and purchase transactions, and real estate due diligence.
