Dear readers,
Our early summer newsletter informs you about new legal
developments which support you in your daily work.
In commercial and company law the law of compliance plays a role
to which ever more attention is being paid.
The most current topic is represented by the effects of the new
version of the Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV) on real estate
contracts and applicable with effect from May 1, 2014.
The private as well as the public real estate law again
contributes numerous topics: liability questions in the case of
deviations from building permit and construction planning;
construction worker debt-securing mortgage; and the recurring
written form problems concerning rental agreements, for example,
when adjusting advance payments of operating costs and when
announcing index-related rent increases.
