Case Study · Compliance
Legal and compliance advice pooled for a corporate group
A parent company and several subsidiaries receive ongoing lawyer support with a compliance focus.

- Client
- Decentrally organised education group
The situation
A decentrally organised education group needed reliable support for parent and subsidiary companies on recurring legal and compliance questions. The topics differed by company and line of business.
Our approach
We established a group-wide legal service providing model with a compliance focus. Requests are received centrally, prioritised by company and risk, and handled by specialised lawyers. Uniform standards combine group-wide governance with the particularities of the individual entities.
The result
Pooled support
Parent and subsidiary companies use a shared advice and steering framework.
Matching expertise
Legal and compliance questions are assigned in a targeted way by topic and risk.
Consistent standards
Group-wide requirements remain uniformly applicable despite the decentralised structure.
