Specialist Lawyer for Commercial and Corporate Law
Emil Brodski has been a lawyer since 1997. He is also a specialist lawyer for commercial and corporate law.
His focus lies on the conduct of cases in complex procedures. Mr. Brodski is often mandated in shareholder disputes, in directors’ and officers’ liability cases, in disputes over deficient resolutions, in post-M&A disputes, and when business-related transactions lead to a conflict.
Due to his practical experience, Mr. Brodski is regularly consulted in unusual problem situations, for instance in cases dealing with the civil-procedural reappraisal of acts of economic crimes, or if a legal dispute already started appears to take a development in the wrong direction.
In the fields of the liability of tax advisors and lawyers, Mr. Brodski is one of the few experts in Germany who exclusively assist the claimant parties, thus the affected clients, in the enforcement of their claims for damage. In addition, he manages proceedings dealing with the liability of auditors and notaries.
As a specialist, Mr. Brodski is often called in by colleagues, insolvency administrators and tax advisors from other offices for advising and supporting their clients. He is involved in major proceedings on a regular basis.
