KWR Karasek Wietrzyk Rechtsanwälte GmbH‘s ’highly motivated team’ tackles the gamut of construction-related challenges, advising contractors, architectural firms and investors on the structuring of construction contracts and assisting on both tender- and bidder-side issues. The practice demonstrates particular strength in construction litigation, acting for both defendants and claimants in disputes arising out of delays, cost overruns and damage claims. Representing clients in such disputes are Georg Karasek and Clemens Berlakovits, both of whom also offer expertise in architectural law. Karasek and Berlakovits lead the team alongside infrastructure specialist Paul Schmidinger and Jan Philipp Schifko, whose practice spans contract drafting, damage and warranty claims and arbitration proceedings.
