As a renowned law firm in Hamburg, we support you nationwide in your banking and capital market law matters. We represent bank clients as well as banks and savings banks.
The early repayment penalty is demanded by banks if borrowers want to repay their loan before the agreed date or if the bank terminates the loan early. In this case, the bank demands compensation for the lost interest. However, there are cases in which banks and financial institutions have provided unclear or incomplete information in their contracts, paving the way for the customer to repay the loan without an early repayment penalty. The expertise of Gerken Rechtsanwälte can help you to identify these loopholes.
A termination of your loan or real estate loan by your bank can lead to considerable financial burdens. However, it is important to know that banks are entitled to do so under certain conditions. Let the specialist lawyers at Gerken Rechtsanwälte check whether your termination is legal. We can also support you in taking preventive measures against a potential termination.
There is a risk of loss with closed-end and open-end real estate funds. Investors may have claims for damages which should be asserted within the limitation period. We will be happy to support you in enforcing your rights.
Although “green” investments are gaining in popularity, they are not without risks. Legislative changes and international competition can affect the returns on these funds. At Gerken Rechtsanwälte, we examine your investments and inform you about possible claims for damages.
Interest rate and currency swaps are complicated and not all banks fulfill their disclosure obligations. If you wish to terminate your swap and also have claims for damages, please contact us.
Are you dissatisfied with your asset management, for example because the value of your custody account has fallen? Asset managers are subject to the obligations arising from the asset management agreement and may have breached their duties, which may be the cause of your losses. We examine your claims for damages and enforce them.
Regardless of your specific concerns in the area of banking and capital market law, Gerken Rechtsanwälte is at your side and offers you expert support and advice.
