We are abante.
Law firm for public procurement.
We drive public procurement forward.
Our law firm is growing rapidly and developing continuously. Our distinctive and unmistakable specialization in public procurement, contract and grant law makes us an attractive and highly sought-after partner for clients from both the public and private sectors.
The central principles of public procurement law are not only a well-known benchmark in the context of our legal assessments, but we also use them as guidelines for our working methods and our day-to-day dealings.
These principles characterize our self-image and ensure that we are constantly improving as a team, together and with each other.
Mission statement
Competition
Competition drives innovation and progress — this is as true for public procurement as it is for our firm. Just as we as a firm compete with other legal service providers, we promote a respectful culture of competition based on performance, creativity and excellence. We are convinced that our focused approach, high level of specialization and efficient processes will enable us to remain successful over the long term in a highly competitive environment.
Every member of our team is given the opportunity to undergo comprehensive professional training and to develop as a lawyer and to take on responsibility at an early stage through excellent work.
Transparency
Our consulting practice shows us every day how important transparent processes are — not only for procurement procedures, but also for a successful law firm. That is why we rely on transparent processes, clear communication and the involvement of all employees. Big and small news in our firm, business developments and even strategic decisions are discussed openly in regular feedback discussions and meetings.
Elsewhere, work may be separated by status, but we use IT solutions to share our knowledge. And we sit down together as often as possible. Through training and internal knowledge platforms, we ensure that every employee stays informed and can actively participate in our growth.
Economic efficiency
As a growth-oriented company, we take care to work economically. Competitive and sustainable profitability is an important factor in our strategy, because it not only affects us, but also makes a statement about the vitality of our firm to our clients and the industry. Economic growth is central to what we can do for our clients and employees.
It enables us to attract the best employees who suit us and to develop, retain and promote them. It also enables us to continue investing in the optimization of our work processes and modern law firm management with forward-looking digital solutions.
Equal treatment
We value professional expertise and commitment. We focus on recognizing talent and promoting it on an equal footing. Origin, gender or other personal characteristics do not play a role. Our career model offers everyone the opportunity to develop within the firm and with our clients according to their individual skills and qualifications. We grow as a team because we see diversity as an advantage and value different perspectives.
To this end, we create and maintain a positive, safe, diverse and inclusive working environment in which people can ask for advice or raise a concern at any time without worrying. We expect and demand a strict “zero tolerance” attitude towards inappropriate behavior from all employees.
Quality and innovation
Quality is a question of attitude. Our goal is to develop a passion for quality and to fuel the desire for it. How we conduct ourselves, present the results of our work and illustrate the added value of our services for our clients forms the basis for how we are perceived as a legal firm.
Our clients want lawyers who can provide them with innovative and reliable legal support in a rapidly evolving world full of challenges. They want advisors who handle their tasks with technical affinity, professional vision and a pragmatic approach. Our aim is to offer our clients tailor-made solutions through efficient collaboration and the effective use of technology.
Social and environmental issues
As a successful law firm, we are aware of the associated social responsibility. We are committed to and support social initiatives at our offices. We pay particular attention to the promotion of young legal talent. Sustainability and the conservation of resources are important issues in our client work as well as in our law firm.
We organize our everyday office life in an environmentally conscious way. We primarily use the train for business trips. Being down-to-earth means something to us. Among other things, we offer our employees a subsidy for the Deutschlandticket as a job ticket and the option of a job bike. And we promote our health through company fitness with our Wellpass membership.
