Cornelia Maetschke-Biersack is a specialist lawyer for family law. Her practice focuses on providing clients with consensual and out-of-court solutions. This includes negotiating and drafting prenuptial agreements with a special focus on agreements of international relevance and separation agreements, as well as agreements covering the legal consequences of divorce.
A further focus of Cornelia’s practice is on advising high-net-worth individuals on all matters relating to corporate and asset succession - both in the area of anticipated succession through gifts inter vivos and by drawing up preventive wills prior to the death of the testator. If necessary, she also represents her clients’ interests in court.
In addition, Cornelia gives specialist lectures on a regular basis
