Profile
Dr. Zweigle advises and represents his clients in matters of private construction and architectural law – before, during and after the realisation of construction projects.
The drafting of construction law contracts, including their negotiation, is a core part of his legal practice.
His advice is often sought at an early stage, at the transition from the planning to the execution stage. During the project development phase, he helps his clients to make important decisions essential for the success of the construction project; his close cooperation with the PUBLIC PLANNING AND BUILDING LAW team enables him to provide his clients with the support they need.
His advice is tailored towards the efficient completion of the construction work, avoiding protracted delays in the event of any issues that may occur during a project.
Dr. Zweigle also supports and advises his clients during the acceptance process and in warranty matters, and he has a successful track record as a litigator.
He has special expertise in payment litigation (fees, contractor’s claims), independent evidentiary proceedings to establish construction defects and litigation for construction defects.
On the matter of real estate transactions, Dr. Zweigle covers the entire process, assisting his clients in the due diligence process as well as in the drafting and negotiation of contracts and the notarisation of the property purchase agreement.
He is a member of the Deutschen Gesellschaft für Baurecht (German Society for Building and Construction Law).
