Legal & Tax Check in the coronavirus crisis

The current situation is tremendously challenging for companies. Liquidity shortfalls and sales slumps affect almost everybody. Advice is now particularly valuable when it is provided quickly and efficiently. Take a look at our Legal & Tax Check.

Our offer to you

We support you in your liquidity planning, in applying for subsidies of any kind (e.g. Emergency Fund of the Chamber of Commerce) and during capacity constraints in particular when your legal department has to focus on crisis management. In this situation we provide you with one-stop support, not only in tax matters, but also in all other legal areas.
