It is no longer the judiciary alone that decides guilt or innocence. The media does not wait for court rulings. In close consultation with your legal advisors, we prepare complex issues for the media—ensuring professional and legally compliant communication of your position.
With tactically astute, discreet communication, we have safely navigated numerous renowned companies and institutions through legal disputes in recent years and protected their reputations. We support you in strategic communication before, during, and after legal disputes.
Breach of trust, claims for damages, fraud, pending supreme court decisions: the spectrum of legal disputes is diverse. But regardless of which proceedings affect you, legally compliant, professional communication helps you present your side of the story and thus protect your reputation.
Gaining the acceptance of local residents for projects such as production facilities or infrastructure construction is a challenge that can only be overcome through well-planned and open communication. We work with you to develop the strategy and plan all steps from approval and communication with the authorities to construction.
Those affected often learn from the newspaper that they are facing an anonymous report. Without precise knowledge of the allegations, they are nevertheless expected to respond immediately and comment on the matter. We are immediately at your side when your reputation is under attack and a quick response is required.
