Philipp SchüttBaker McKenzie

Baker McKenzies internationale Mandantschaft entstammt vorrangig den Automobil-, Technologie-, Verbrauchsgüter-, Mode- und Logistikbranchen, wobei das Team vereinzelt ebenfalls zu handels- und vertriebsrechtlichen Belangen im Finanzwesen berät. Neben digitalen Sachverhalten wie E-Commerce begleitet die Praxis regelmäßig den Aufbau und die Umstrukturierung von Vertriebssystemen – eine Spezialisierung des Praxisgruppenleiters Ulf Wauschkuhn – sowie neben Vertriebs-, Liefer- und Kooperationsvereinbarungen auch handels- und vertriebsrechtliche Streitigkeiten. In letzterem Bereich ist Counsel Philipp Schütt versiert, wobei er über besonders tiefe Expertise im Bereich der Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit verfügt. Katharina Spenner komplementiert die Praxis mit weitreichenden vertriebs- und vertriebskartellrechtlichen Kompetenzen, die sie häufig im Zusammenhang mit dem Onlinevertrieb sowie selektiven Vertriebssystemen einsetzt.
