SOZELIO Rechtsanwälte GmbH & Co. KG

What SOZELIO Rechtsanwälte GmbH & Co. KG does

SOZELIO Rechtsanwälte GmbH & Co. KG is a Nuremberg-based boutique law firm operating as a German limited partnership (GmbH & Co. KG) under the corporate general partner SOZELIO Partners Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH. The firm concentrates its practice on five integrated areas: Real Estate Law (Immobilienrecht), Construction and Architectural Law (Bau- und Architektenrecht), Corporate and Commercial Law (Gesellschaftsrecht/Wirtschaftsrecht), Public Law (Öffentliches Recht), and Renewable Energy Law (Recht der erneuerbaren Energien). It serves enterprise and mid-market clients — including real estate developers, investors, construction and architectural firms, corporate clients, and the public sector — primarily in the Nuremberg metropolitan region and across Bavaria. The firm is led by four managing-director shareholders (Florian Aulbach, Dr. Matthias Benedikt, Dr. Michael Grüner, and Dr. Tanja Potschies) and is staffed by a small team that includes dual-qualified lawyers (notably a civil engineer turned specialist construction lawyer and an EIPOS-trained real estate project developer who also acts as a mediator for construction disputes).

The firm's go-to-market is relationship-driven and event-led rather than digital or volume-based. SOZELIO runs its own recurring 'FachUpdates' seminar series covering real estate, construction, public, renewable energy, and corporate law topics; co-hosts these events with BBE Handelsberatung GmbH and Küspert & Küspert Immobilienberatung; and maintains long-standing sponsorships at the Handelsimmobilienkongress, DER MARKT, and the Family Office Real Estate Day. The firm operates from the 29th floor of Business Tower Nürnberg, where its offices are configured for client-facing engagement. Revenue is generated through professional-service fees — statutory fees under the German Lawyers' Remuneration Act (Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz, RVG) for court proceedings and individually negotiated hourly or fixed fees for out-of-court advisory mandates. There are no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, technology platforms, or non-legal revenue streams; the firm operates as an independent, partnership-style professional services entity under German law.
