Public Law

constitutional law

Constitutional law regulates principles to which private individuals can refer.

This is particularly about the legal conformity of laws and regulations as well as the protection of constitutionally guaranteed basic rights.

If your rights have been violated, we will help you to enforce or protect your rights by representing you in proceedings up to the Administrative Court and the Constitutional Court. If your rights are not protected within Austria, we will also represent you in proceedings before the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

Representation before authorities and administrative courts

We represent you in ordinary administrative penal proceedings before administrative courts as well as in abbreviated administrative penal proceedings before authorities on the basis of a penal order, an anonymous order or an official penal order.


If your rights were violated by an administrative body (executive) in the course of an act of direct administrative authority to command and coerce (e.g. arrest), we will help you to assert the violation by means of a so-called complaint against measures.

commercial law

In Austria, certain professional activities must be registered as a trade according to the trade regulations (GewO). In addition, some commercial activities require further requirements (e.g. a certificate of qualification) for exercise.

Trade law regulates the legal framework for registering and exercising trades.

Among other things, we will help you in matters relating to regulated trades, commercial and industrial companies, operating facilities, measures taken by the trade police, managing directors under trade law, liability issues and the loss or withdrawal of trade licences.
