We are Ettrich.

JUVE again lists Ettrich as a recognized law firm in the central region and writes about us in the Handbook of Commercial Law Firms 2024/2025:

“The Frankfurt boutique is well established with regional banks and major banks in litigation, especially in mass litigation. Commerzbank, among others, has relied on the team for several years. The unit manages small to medium-sized litigation portfolios for the defense against claims for damages. By expanding its team with litigation managers, it is increasingly in a position to handle larger mass proceedings. The boutique is also broadening its practice, e.g. in employment and real estate law, in order to respond to the demand for solutions for distressed commercial rental properties. This is a logical step to make the firm’s success less dependent on litigation.”

Judith Hauser (“quick-thinking, pragmatic”) is also often recommended for litigation and Hendrik Bourguignon for employment law.

We are delighted with the recognition of our work in recent years and look forward to making our strengths in real estate law and employment law even more visible in the market in the coming years.

JUVE again lists Hendrik Bourguignon in the 2024/2025 Handbook of Commercial Law Firms in the ranking of frequently recommended employment lawyers for advising executives.

For the first time, the Administrative Court of Wiesbaden (decision of December 17, 2024 – 6 L 1867/24) has addressed the legal question of whether Section 3 (3) BörsG excludes a citizen’s claim against the stock exchange supervisory authority for supervisory intervention and whether a corresponding request for obligation should be dismissed as inadmissible due to lack of standing to file an application or lawsuit. The Administrative Court has affirmed this.

Until now, only administrative court decisions regarding comparable situations involving BaFin’s supervisory activities and the parallel provision in the Financial Services Supervision Act (FinDAG) had been issued in this sense. The decision of the Administrative Court of Wiesbaden clarifies that uniform standards apply throughout financial market law. It also indicates that even a Union law-compliant interpretation of Section 3 (3) BörsG does not lead to a different result.
