From abstract legal requirements to clear recommendations for action
With her analytical focus, pragmatism and drive for clarity, Anna v. Dietze sheds light on the ever-growing regulatory jungle. She helps companies to assess legal risks and develop practical solutions.
Dear Anna, what does our promise “To make it simple, but significant” mean to you?
“I see my added value in translating abstract legal requirements into concrete, implementable measures while keeping an eye on risks and economic priorities. My experience as an in-house lawyer, my strength in execution and my constant efforts to bring clarity to complex issues help me in particular.”
Versatile experience
in law firms and companies
Her wide-ranging expertise and practical focus make Anna v. Dietze a valuable advisor for German and international companies. Anna v. Dietze monitors legal developments and is therefore in a position to provide clients with reliable advice in a time characterized by geopolitical turbulence and legal uncertainty.
Having worked as an in-house lawyer for an MDax company, I know first-hand how difficult it is to implement legal requirements in commercial reality.
Thanks to being admitted as a lawyer in Germany, Australia and England & Wales and many years of legal consulting, I understand different legal systems and the legal challenges of globally operating companies.
Through my involvement in association activities at the interface of politics, business and society, I advocate for proportionate regulation to foster innovation and competition.
