Sie müssen nicht jedes neue Gutachten und jede Entwicklung im Vergaberecht kennen. Wir filtern für Sie.
Unser Newsletter bringt Ihnen die wichtigsten Neuigkeiten im Vergaberecht in Ihr E‑Mail-Postfach.
Begleitet von Praxistipps und wertvollen Einblicken aus unserer Kanzlei.
Hinweis: Unser Newsletter ersetzt keinen anwaltlichen Rat im Einzelfall.

Er soll Sie zur frühzeitigen Abklärung von Rechtsfragen motivieren, nicht aber davon abhalten sich rechtzeitig rechtlich beraten zu lassen.
