At Schlun & Elseven Rechtsanwälte, our lawyers work with clients worldwide and across legal fields. We regularly provide expert legal opinions in diverse legal areas. The legal opinion allows parties to gain a qualified legal outlook on a specific issue related to a transaction. It is a written document presented by a qualified lawyer, and it should be considered when entering into complex arrangements. It may concern the validity of records, contractual obligations, and whether German law will impact a particular project. The legal opinion should be sought before commercial transactions, as when clearly defined it will outline certain legal risks inherent in the issue.
The need for a legal opinion can arise regarding a concrete issue concerning specific events or clauses or more abstract legal issues.
