Business law – essential for your company – Our specialization – your competitive advantage
The contract as a secure foundation for companies
Contracts are an integral part of business life: Employment contracts with employees, general terms and conditions, supply contracts, purchase contracts with customers, cooperation agreements with partners, etc.
Every single contract should be legally compliant – because only then can you build a secure foundation for your business activities.
As a modern & innovative lawyer for contract law, we keep up with the times. We know what is important when it comes to contracts – whether in commercial law, corporate law, company law or real estate law. As part of our work as trustees, Mr. Schaunig and his team also take on the fiduciary handling of purchase agreements, transfer agreements and assignment agreements.
As an innovative commercial law firm, we deliver the best and most legally secure results for our clients based on numerous precedents, sample collections, contract templates and AI-supported contract drafting.
Due to the large number of different contract types, it is difficult to list all possible combinations of contracts, clauses and provisions. The fact is that every company needs individual contracts tailored to its needs that are enforceable in the event of a dispute.
We support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), start-ups, family businesses and expanding companies at our law firm in Vienna with professional legal advice, review & drafting of contracts – in Austria and throughout Europe.
The contract as a secure foundation for companies
Estate agent law is full of legal peculiarities. The sale or rental of private or commercial properties regularly involves large sums of money. Buyers usually spend their entire savings to purchase a property.
On the other hand, the broker also has a legal interest in achieving the highest possible commission and securing his claim against his clients.
The property management company also has its own concerns. Legal problems can arise in the brokerage processes on either the buyer or seller side. In addition to potential liabilities, it is essential for property managers to thoroughly check the creditworthiness and reliability of tenants when letting properties in order to avoid the threat of rent defaults.
For these reasons, it makes sense to choose a lawyer who has the necessary experience and specialization in these areas.
Whether you are an entrepreneur, estate agent, property manager, buyer or seller: Our team and I as a lawyer are at your side for all questions and concerns regarding brokerage law and brokerage contracts.

Why is a lawyer a good contract negotiator?
Why is a lawyer a good contract negotiator?
Lawyers have been trained since law school to enforce their clients’ claims in court. Thanks to their comprehensive insight into existing, past and potential future disputes, a contract law lawyer knows what is important when drafting contracts and which formulations, clauses and other provisions are essential.
Paper is patient. Often a wrong comma within a clause can already decide the existence or non-existence of a claim. The lawyer’s many years of court experience, regular further training and good liability insurance ensure that the client’s interests are protected in the best possible way and that their rights can be enforced in the best possible way when drawing up or reviewing contracts.

Model contracts: a solution with stumbling blocks
Model contracts: a solution with stumbling blocks
Loopholes in contracts cause one thing in particular: problems. And this is precisely the difficulty with standard contracts. Overly general wording and a lack of individuality make these contractual documents vague and vague. They are suitable for as many situations as possible, but do not take into account the individual circumstances of companies.
In most cases, important aspects and clauses are missing and contractual errors can even arise due to ambiguous wording. At first glance, inexpensive sample contracts quickly become expensive; even more expensive than a professional draft would have been.
