Condominium law
The law for condominium owners’ associations is regulated in the Condominium Ownership Act (Wohnungseigentumsgesetz, WEG or COA ), which was comprehensively amended in 2020. The law regulates, in particular, the arrangement of individual property and common property, the internal relationship of the condominium owners among each other, the procedures for decision-making within the community and legal protection between condominium owners, individual owners and the community and between the community and third parties.
We support, advise and represent condominium owners, communities and administrators of condominium owners in all matters of condominium law.
