Our milestones and values.

By your side since 1965.

The firm was founded by Dr Friedrich Haver and Prof. Dr Karl-Peter Mailänder. This forms the foundation of our commitment to legal excellence and personal dedication.

Tradition & Partnership

Our core values: Our partners are not just ‘rainmakers’ but hands-on practitioners. We know and understand our clients and their cases because we experience first-hand the direct involvement of our partners in every case. Providing advice on an equal footing defines our firm’s culture and builds trust.

International perspective

Drawing on our global expertise, we handle cross-border cases. As part of the International Law Firm Network, a recognised network of medium-sized commercial law firms, we combine our legal expertise with a global reach.

Responsibility & Commitment

We look beyond the law. Through partnerships and involvement in committees, professional associations (the Bar Association and the Association of Medium-Sized Law Firms), sport (partnerships with top clubs such as VfB Stuttgart, Allianz MTV Stuttgart and TC Weissenhof), as well as education and culture (Literaturhaus Stuttgart and the Stuttgart Community Foundation), we promote excellence and diversity.

Community & Knowledge

We are investing in the future: our partners share their expertise through teaching roles and professorships. We also encourage voluntary work within the team to actively contribute to the development of our society.

With precision and passion, we combine our strengths as a team. We tackle complex challenges with courage and strategic insight. Our collaborative approach forms the foundation for trust and excellent results.

We build trust through transparency and a personal approach. Our clients rely on fair, open and dedicated representation. This is how we build long-term partnerships based on mutual respect.

We are committed to the highest standards of quality and performance. Our clients rely on our excellent advice and effective representation. We deliver legally sound results, tailored to your commercial and strategic objectives.

Our advisory services thrive on proximity and accessibility. We are directly and reliably available to our clients. Each client is supported personally and on an ongoing basis by a partner – ensuring a working relationship based on genuine trust.

We resolve complex legal issues with creativity and decisiveness. We develop forward-thinking solutions that go beyond traditional ways of thinking. In this way, we offer our clients lasting benefits and set new standards.
