“For many years Gerlach & Partner / external.legal has been legally supporting all German activities of our globally active, US-owned metal corporation. They are really great in supporting and transforming our international corporate structures and in efficiently enabling our complex contract management."

"They started up a complete legal department for us from scratch, which we urgently needed, and quickly gained trust and company knowledge at all levels. In our management meetings, they regularly made constructive suggestions, e.g. on risk management and governance/decision-making structures, and then implemented them. In complex customer projects, they supported us in defining our own risk appetite and in executing it in the negotiations with the customer."

"In a major strategic project over several months, they successfully coached our team to getting the agreement signed. They were very persistent where necessary, constructive whenever possible, and helped shaping not only the legal but also the operational and commercial cornerstones".

“The firm advised me in a very complicated inheritance matter and guided me through the procedure up to a successful conclusion. I am grateful for the competent, technically outstanding and always transparent support, and can recommend the firm at any time.”
