Master the approval jungle –
efficient, client-oriented advice for your infrastructure projects!

Stefan Wiesendahl has been transforming complex approval procedures into clear, efficient approval processes for over 20 years – so that your infrastructure projects are realized quickly, legally compliant and tailored to your needs. You can rely on advice that focuses on your goals.

Dear Stefan, what does our promise
“To make it simple, but significant” mean to you?

“Things are not moving forward – in planning, in the approval process, in project implementation? Is it almost impossible to keep track of the many different requirements and parties involved in official procedures?

We should talk. In this way, we get building law, water law, nature conservation law, mining law. Immission control law and all other requirements for your project.”

Your infrastructure, your success – experience the decisive advantage through efficiency and legal certainty!

Technology needs legal backing – and that means that even the best infrastructure idea, whether for state-of-the-art power lines, innovative renewable energy plants or revolutionary mining projects, requires clear legal approval. With my help, you can get a firm grip on even complex approval procedures – so that you can start implementation at full speed.
