Notice:

We prepare our web pages with utmost diligence. Under no circumstances would we deliberately violate applicable law. In the case of 'Abmahnung' according to German law (involves the warning to refrain from continuing a certain condition or act deemed unlawful, usually leading to settlements; this is an often confusing process incurring considerable legal costs, which is quite commonly used against competing Internet vendors in Germany), we ask to notify us before filing the 'Abmahnung' in order to avoid unnecessary legal action and legal costs. In case the lawyer issuing the 'Abmahnung' has made no contact with us prior to sending a debit note, we will repudiate this debit note based on the failure to mitigate damages. We shall swiftly answer specious 'Abmahnungen' and/or cease and desist letters with a direct action for a declarative judgment.

Important Information on Behalf of our Firm:

In 2009, the news media (e. g. the magazine ‘Spiegel’ and the daily newspaper ‘Bild’) reported that an extreme right-wing party had violated the German Political Parties Act by way of submitting incorrect reports to the German Federal Administrative Offices and that the submitted reports had been signed by the auditor Werner Linn.

It is important to us to inform you that the auditor Werner Linn (no PhD) operates his own separate offices in Frankenthal/Pfalz (Palatinate, Germany). Our partner by the same name has no relationship with this auditor or the political party under investigation.

Please also note the additional information, which we have provided under the tab 'Impressum' and under the heading 'Data Privacy'.
