Sonja’s daily practice
“The corporate law practice really suits me. It is a broad and varied area of law with often complex legal issues, ranging from mergers, acquisitions and restructurings to internal and corporate disputes. In order to properly advise clients and support colleagues, I want to thoroughly examine all aspects of a case. On that basis, we can assess the case legally and determine how to achieve the best result for the client. In short: plenty of dynamism!
