Our focus

FEHN Legal focuses on CRIMINAL LAW, COMPLIANCE CONSULTING, SPORTS LAW, LABOR LAW, MEDICAL LAW, and CONSTITUTIONAL LAW.

WE HAVE PROVEN ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATIONS, RELEVANT SPECIALIZATIONS, AND DECADES OF PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE IN VARIOUS FIELDS.

A functioning NETWORK, a view beyond national borders, and our comprehensive commitment to the interests and goals of our clients form the basis for high-quality, solution-oriented, and creative advice. In the area of CRIMINAL LAW, this advice is aimed at companies, board members, managing directors, and other executives, but also at private individuals seeking advice.

In the field of CRIMINAL TAX LAW, we advise and defend individuals and advise company board members and (sports) associations.

COMMERCIAL CRIMINAL LAW is a very broad field that also extends to areas such as corporate management, research, working life, sports, and the environment, and is, among other things, ancillary to administrative law (e.g., in environmental criminal law or in the case of official offenses). We are also able to offer highly qualified advice and representation in this area. We apply our experience in commercial criminal law to substantive commercial law. Here, we advise companies of all sizes on corporate and contract law as well as on compliance and organizational issues.

In the area of SPORTS CRIMINAL LAW, we defend athletes and officials against all criminal charges that may be brought in connection with professional sports in particular (e.g., assault, betting fraud, doping). In substantive SPORTS LAW, we also offer support in sports arbitration proceedings, in the drafting of player and equipment contracts, cooperation and sponsorship agreements with medical service providers in sports, legal issues relating to merchandising, and the formation of sports companies and registered associations.

WHEN YOU COME FROM A SPORTS BACKGROUND YOURSELF, YOU NATURALLY HAVE A SPECIAL AFFINITY FOR SPORTS AND A SPECIAL UNDERSTANDING OF SPORTS AND ATHLETES. THIS OFFERS US THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMBINE OUR SECOND PASSION, LAW, WITH SPORTS, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE DO IN VARIOUS AREAS OF SPORTS, SUCH AS SOCCER AND EQUESTRIAN SPORTS.

In the field of MEDICAL (CRIMINAL) LAW, we defend doctors in preliminary investigations for (alleged) malpractice or against allegations of billing fraud, as well as employees and board members of pharmaceutical companies against allegations of criminal violations of the German Medicines Act and similar offenses. When providing legal advice to medical and dental practices, medical and dental practices, and (Z)MVZs, another focus is on providing legal support for purchases and sales or succession planning. In addition, we defend against claims for damages and compensation for pain and suffering in connection with allegations of medical malpractice, including on behalf of professional liability insurers, drawing on our experience from over 6,000 medical malpractice lawsuits on the provider side. We also have particular expertise in health administration law (e.g., professional law for the healthcare professions, infection control law).

COMPLIANCE consulting aims to ensure compliance with regulations and prevent violations, thereby helping companies AVOID CRIMINAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS as well as civil LIABILITY LAWSUITS. In addition, a functioning compliance system can lead to MITIGATION OF SANCTIONS and serves to protect the company’s IMAGE to a considerable extent. Our range of services includes the development and implementation of a customized compliance system tailored to your needs, a WHISTLEBLOWER SYSTEM including its support and evaluation, as well as the fulfillment of legal reporting obligations and the conduct of INTERNAL INVESTIGATIONS.

Closely linked to advising on corporate criminal law issues, compliance, and internal investigations are questions relating to LABOR LAW and LABOR CRIMINAL LAW. Here, we represent the interests of employers and employees in and out of court.

Finally, we are active in the field of CONSTITUTIONAL LAW. Here, we represent clients before both the state constitutional courts and the Federal Constitutional Court, contributing our expertise in areas such as judicial review proceedings, disputes between constitutional organs, and constitutional complaints.
