OUR FOCUS - SPECIALISATIONS

In the increasingly complex everyday life of a company, legal topics overlap and continuously raise a wide variety of questions. Therefore, it is not only the subject area that is important, but also the expertise for practical application and implementation in a wide range of industries.

Piltz Legal has particular expertise in advising and assisting companies as well as public authorities and institutions. Our advice focuses on topics related to digitalisation, data protection, IT security and law, as well as contract law issues in international trade and distribution.

Our focus is on advice, support and preventive positioning, but also on defence in administrative and data protection law proceedings. We see our task as clarifying issues for companies in a practical manner and identifying and minimising legal risks.
