Administrative litigation – defending rights against public authorities

Acts issued by public authorities can have major effects on rights and interests. When an administrative act is unlawful or unfounded, the law allows it to be challenged. I provide assistance and representation in disputes with authorities and in tax matters.

I analyse the act, the legal basis, and the facts, build the procedural strategy, and explain timelines, costs, and risks. Each step is discussed so you can decide quickly and informed.

I represent clients in dialogue with authorities and in court, so unlawful measures are corrected and negative effects (fines, restrictions, delays) are limited as fast as possible.
