    Neue CMS Blogserie: Steuern in Krise und Insolvenz
    2024-03-01

Diese liegen im Steuerstrafrecht und in Haftungsrisiken – auch für die Beteiligten persönlich –, die wiederum den Sanierungserfolg torpedieren und selbst zur Existenzbedrohung werden können.

    German insolvency administrator grossly negligent for breach of duty in investigating contestation claims
    2024-01-16

    In a recent case before the Federal Court of Justice, an insolvency administrator was found to have neglected his duties of investigation in a particularly serious and reproachable manner.

    Decision
