"The construction sector is full of potential for conflict. My goal is therefore to provide legal advice that identifies and avoids possible risks at an early stage."
Prof. Dr. Johannes Handschumacher

All facets of construction and architectural law have been the focus of Prof. Dr Johannes Handschumacher's work for more than two decades. As an experienced specialist lawyer, he strengthens the team at Battke Grünberg, particularly in matters of construction and real estate law. Clients in the public and commercial sectors benefit equally from his expertise in providing legal support for complex construction projects. Questions of contract drafting are often decisive here - also with regard to financing issues, the involvement of subcontractors or the enforcement of or defence against warranty claims. When controversies arise in construction projects despite careful preparation, Prof. Handschumacher prefers to use mediation during construction. This often avoids costly construction delays and ensures on-time completion.

In addition to his expertise in construction law, Prof. Handschumacher also advises on all aspects of real estate law - from general property law to condominium law and commercial tenancy law.

Prof. Handschumacher shares his knowledge as a specialist lawyer for construction and architectural law, among other things, as an honorary professor for construction and real estate law at the Technical University of Dresden and as editor of the specialist journal juris-PraxisReport Öffentliches Baurecht.


Momentum with swing. In addition to his day-to-day work as a lawyer, Johannes Handschumacher volunteers at the 1st Senate of the Saxon Lawyers' Court and as Honorary Consul of Mongolia. And whenever these offices leave him time, the jazz lover searches for the perfect swing: Musically on his saxophone or sportily with a golf putter on the green.
