Petra frequently advises and represents a wide range of listed and unlisted companies, and investors in complex corporate and antitrust litigation matters before the national courts, including the conclusion of settlement agreements. She has considerable experience in shareholder compensation appraisal proceedings as well as disputes involving stock corporations and limited-liability companies. In addition, she advises corporate clients on structuring measures and critical shareholders' meetings (e.g. squeeze-outs and enterprise agreements).
For many years, Petra has represented foreign and domestic clients across a wide range of industries in numerous appraisal proceedings. Among the most prominent in which Petra has been active are the appraisal proceedings in connection with certain structural measures (squeeze-out and enterprise agreement) following the takeover of Schering by Bayer, the merger between T-Online International and Deutsche Telekom, enterprise agreements between Deutsche Bank and Postbank, and between GEA Group and mg technologies, and the merger between VEW and RWE. The latter proceedings were terminated by way of settlement allowing RWE to deliver additional RWE shares instead of cash to the former shareholders of VEW.
