LEGAL ADVICE | LEGAL OPINIONS | EXPERT ASSESSMENTS
Bergt Law advises and represents companies, entrepreneurs, board members, investors, regulated market participants and private clients on complex legal questions involving Liechtenstein and cross-border matters.
We analyse legal positions, assess options and risks, and formulate defensible legal conclusions for decision-making, negotiations, transactions, authority interactions and disputes. Depending on the mandate, our work may range from a focused second opinion to a detailed legal opinion or regulatory submission.
OUR SERVICES
Complex legal questions require more than a summary of statutory provisions. The relevant law, contractual framework, regulatory context and underlying facts must be brought together to form a transparent and reasoned legal position.
Legal classification of specific matters, assessment of options and risks, and advice on appropriate legal next steps. We provide decision-makers with clear legal foundations for business, regulatory and private decisions.
Structured legal opinions, expert assessments and written legal statements on complex or interpretative questions. Mandates may concern Liechtenstein law, EEA-related issues and cross-border situations.
Review of contracts, agreements, resolutions and other legal documents for validity, risk, inconsistencies, liability and enforceability, together with concrete drafting or amendment proposals.
Legal submissions, classifications and position papers for interactions with authorities and supervisory bodies. Where financial-market law is relevant, we involve our Banking & Financial Market Law practice.
Independent legal review of existing opinions, contractual positions, litigation strategies or regulatory assessments, providing an additional basis for decision-making before material steps are taken.
Advice and representation in legal negotiations, shareholder and contractual disputes, liability matters and court or supervisory proceedings. Legal analysis and dispute strategy are coordinated from the outset.
FROM FACTS TO A DEFENSIBLE POSITION
A useful legal opinion must be understandable, source-based and directed at the decision to be made. Our approach clearly separates facts, legal framework, analysis and conclusion.
We identify the decision-relevant facts, objectives, assumptions and precise legal questions.
We review legislation, case law, materials, contractual foundations, EEA relevance and applicable regulatory requirements.
We assess interpretations, risks, counterarguments and possible legal consequences rather than simply confirming a preferred outcome.
We provide a clear conclusion and, where useful, practical legal options for implementation.
