"Our client, a subsidiary of a Danish corporation, built a sewage sludge drying plant in Poland. The construction contract was governed by Polish law, while the corporate guarantee provided by the parent company was governed by Danish law. When difficulties arose in Poland due to alleged defects, the client—a Polish company—sought to enforce the guarantee and assert claims against our client under the construction contract. Our client asked us to recommend a large law firm, as this matter was certainly beyond our capabilities. I then brought in our Polish and Danish colleagues, and the three of us successfully handled the project for our client."

"A client of our colleagues had mistakenly transferred nearly half a million euros to a foreign account as a result of fraud. Through the Advoselect network, a local colleague was immediately brought on board, who—thanks to personal contacts—was able to reach the relevant bank management directly. Within just two days, the full amount was successfully reclaimed—an extraordinary success that impressively demonstrates the efficiency and strength of our international network."

"Our law firm in Giessen, which specializes in transaction and corporate law, advises an investor who is acquiring numerous medical practices and experiencing strong growth. Through the Advoselect network, specialized colleagues now handle approximately 150 lease agreements, tax due diligence reviews, and intellectual property matters. This allows the two-person law firm to provide centralized support to its clients while offering services on par with those of a large law firm—even for cross-border transactions."

"Our Danish client is building an equestrian brand and is looking to acquire a company in Sweden, for which the choice was between an asset deal and the acquisition of a Swedish public limited company. Through the Advoselect network, we were able to immediately bring in our Swedish colleague, who quickly drafted the asset deal; the contract draft was available for review in a short time—without having to spend weeks searching for a suitable local law firm."

"A Munich-based investment manager that oversees real estate investments worldwide for pension funds had to revise its group-wide whistleblower policy. As the lead law firm, we took over the external whistleblower reporting office and, through Advoselect, were able to obtain quotes from eight member law firms for 16 international locations within two days—some of which included fee estimates within minutes."

"Through my involvement in an art law working group of the International Bar Association, we needed to find a speaker from a major auction house for a webinar on short notice—but no one had any connections. Through a colleague in the Advoselect network, I was able to secure the legal counsel from Sotheby’s as a panelist in no time at all."

"An engineering services provider in the wind farm sector has hired us to protect its trademark in Germany and various European countries. After successfully taking action against imitators, another company with an identical or highly similar name was discovered in England. Through a colleague in the Advoselect network, we were able to engage a local trademark law specialist; this allows us to continue pursuing trademark protection for the company in the United Kingdom in a targeted manner."

"A client had entered into an arbitration agreement that designated Berlin or Sofia as the place of arbitration; the opposing party convened the arbitral tribunal in Sofia. Through the Advoselect network, a Bulgarian colleague was brought on board at short notice; she initially succeeded in reopening a deadline that the client had missed and continuing the arbitration proceedings in Sofia; at the same time, the German law firm filed a motion in Germany for judicial review of the arbitration agreement. In the end, the arbitration was won; the strategy was continuously coordinated between Germany and Bulgaria, and all communication was conducted in German for the client, who spoke German but was not comfortable with English."

"A German client wanted to sell a German software distribution company; the buyer was a U.S. manufacturer that wanted to structure the deal under English law. Through a colleague in the Advoselect network, a lawyer specializing in English transaction law was brought on board, allowing the contract and negotiations to be conducted under English law while the client was advised in German—a combination of professional expertise and linguistic familiarity that made things much easier for the client."

"A long-standing client with extensive real estate holdings moved from southern Germany to Hamburg and needed new, reliable legal representation there. Through the Advoselect network, a colleague from northern Germany was brought on board, along with a tax advisor and a notary from his law firm. Together, they first drafted a prenuptial agreement and addressed other family and succession law matters; financial planning and client management remained with the original advisor, while the North German firm gradually took over day-to-day support—much to the client’s satisfaction, who viewed the collaboration as an ideal win-win situation."

"A German financial institution fell victim to a complex fraud scheme in which approximately 4 million euros were stolen and about 2 million euros were transferred to an account held by a Bulgarian company at a Bulgarian bank. Working together with our colleagues at Advoselect in Augsburg, we coordinated with criminal defense attorneys in Bulgaria, the bank, the Office of the Prosecutor General, and the German Embassy to quickly freeze the accounts and secure the funds at the Bulgarian bank—a crucial success for our client."
