Over the last few years, Malmendier Legal has been able to expand its expertise in advising on international sanctions and embargoes, namely in Iran, Libya, Mali and the Russian Federation. In addition, our law firm handles all proceedings with the Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) on behalf of clients. Sanctions are used as a means of coercion to hit and damage the economy of the sanctioned state as hard as possible and are therefore often undifferentiated, which opens up room for judicial review.
