I studied law in Bonn and was previously head of the legal department at an employers’ association in Berlin, before joining the firm in 2010 and becoming a partner of the firm in 2014. I chair the practice group Employment at Ahlers & Vogel as well as the EMEA Special Interest Group Labour & Employment at MSI Global Alliance. I advise companies on all aspects of Employment Law, particularly on collective issues. A large part of my consultancy activity focuses on Maritime Labour Law and cross-border projects, for example in the case of M & A negotiations or connected with posting of workers. I have ample and thorough experience in core industries like Aviation, Chemical, Diaconal institutions, Research and Civil service as well as in several other fields across the SMEs in the north-western region. I frequently render advice to CEOs and senior executives, and am a regular lecturer for associations and companies and an experienced litigator. In addition, I often deal with matters related to European Employment law since I am the only attorney-at-law in Bremen being member of the European Employment Lawyers Association (EELA). In addition, I am a regular contributor for the legal magazine European Employment.
