Upcoming Workshops 2017
The goal of the seminars is to strengthen the legal knowledge of leaders and managers in the construction sector, in the areas of private construction law, architecture law and procurement law. The workshops also aim to profoundly increase participants’ knowledge of important issues in particularly important areas of construction law, for example, the law of construction contracts.
Construction Law IN STUTTGART

24. August 2017 – Workshop – Pricing and Claims (Dr. Breyer)
14. August 2017 – 4th. International BBB-Congress, Stuttgart (Dr. Breyer) (german).
Inhouse-Seminare and Workshops
Naturally, we also offer these and other seminars in-house. These can be either offered to your employees in a generalist form, or they can be tailor-made to address the needs of particular projects and directed at particular project teams in a workshop setting.
The goal of the seminars is to improve the knowledge of leaders and managers in the construction sector, in the areas of private construction law, architecture law and procurement law. The workshops also aim to profoundly increase participants’ knowledge of important issues in particularly important areas of construction law, for example, the law of construction contracts. Since leaders and managers in the construction business regularly encounter aspects of other branches of law, including the law of contracts for the sale of goods, the law of contracts for work and materials, social law, insolvency law and employment law, we also cover relevant parts of those legal areas. We offer you and your business bespoke solutions, whether at your offices or at our practices, at times that suit you, for example fortnightly from 5pm to 7pm. In preliminary discussions with you, we would agree on themes that we would cover and set particular focuses for discussion.
Further information can be found under the seminar-tab.
