Life Sciences (Medical & Health Care)

In the practice area of medical and health law, our firm has a specialized Life Sciences Competence Group, which, as an interdisciplinary team, covers all relevant areas of law. Our advisory services focus in particular on the law governing healthcare professions, medical practice law, and hospital law, as well as related areas such as labor law, data protection law, corporate law, and general civil law, along with key issues of public law. Thanks to this interdisciplinary expertise, we possess a deep understanding of the legal and regulatory framework in the healthcare sector and the specific intersections between medicine, business, and regulation.

We advise and represent healthcare providers and organizations—including hospitals, outpatient clinics, medical groups, (affiliated) physicians, hospital groups, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, rehabilitation and acute care clinics, laboratories, and other healthcare service providers—on all matters of private and public law. We support management and legal departments in day-to-day operations as well as in the establishment, acquisition, or sale of facilities. In addition, we advise startups in the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors and regularly represent our clients in medical malpractice cases—particularly those involving alleged failures to inform patients or errors in treatment—both in and out of court.
