The Multi-Disciplinary Approach to Avoiding Conflict

Thomas Gemmeke and Boris Dürr from RP Richter & Partners, a sponsor at the marcus evans European Corporate Counsel Summit 2010, discuss how multi-disciplinary cooperation can help avoid conflict altogether.

    MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND, July 25, 2010 /Law and Legal PR News/ -- It is crucial to bring together the law, tax and finance disciplines when handling transactions and projects, according to Thomas Gemmeke and Boris Dürr, Partners and Attorneys-at-Law at RP Richter & Partner. Conflict may be avoided altogether if projects are handled from all dimensions from the start. Sponsoring the marcus evans European Corporate Counsel Summit 2010 in Switzerland, 26 - 28 September, Gemmeke and Dürr share their outlook on the future, and the benefits of multi-disciplinary cooperation in the legal space.

What are your projections for the coming few years?

Boris Dürr: I expect there to be an over-regulation of the capital markets in Europe, especially for small and mid-sized companies. However, it will be very difficult to keep everything in line with just a few staff members. General Counsel will need more in-house Counsel or a bigger budget for external legal advice.

One very important factor which will increase in the future is multi-disciplinary cooperation. We are a multi-disciplinary law firm and we consider it crucial to bring together the law, tax and finance disciplines when handling transactions and projects, to avoid conflicts altogether. Corporate Counsel should work closely with Tax Counsel and accounting departments. If they handle projects only from the legal side, other issues and conflicts may arise with the tax authorities. This can be avoided if they work together from the very beginning.

Thomas Gemmeke: In Germany, many General Counsel are getting a seat in the Board of Management of companies, because compliance issues will become more and more important.
