Background

About Ralf Weisser

Are you an entrepreneur, managing director or legal counsel of a company and looking for a trusted partner to solve your legal issues? One with decades of experience as a business lawyer who can also advise you in cross-border matters? I have been admitted as an attorney at law in Germany and New York for over 30 years. During my professional life, I have solved a variety of business law issues and tasks in Germany and abroad as a business lawyer with major German and American law firms and companies and look forward to being of your help as well. With my own law firm, I support in particular → Medium-sized companies and start-ups as an external legal department in all matters of day-to-day business (including contract drafting and negotiation and regulatory issues). → Managing directors and legal counsel in disputes that are litigated in courts or arbitration tribunals (from advising on litigation strategy to attempting alternative dispute resolution to litigation). → Companies with major projects that cannot be implemented with their own resources (including M&A, outsourcing, digital transformation and developing new businesses). What my clients & peers say: I have been listed as a leading lawyer for technology, media and telecommunications (TMT) for over two decades in JUVE, Chambers, Legal 500 and have been awarded Best Lawyers Lawyer of the Year 2023 for Media in Bavaria. Weisser Rechtsanwalt is listed in Best Law Firms 2026 in Tier 1 for Media Law (national level for Germany as well as for Bavaria) and for Telecommunications Law, in Tier 2 for Information Technology Law and for Litigation and in Tier 3 for Technology Law, all in Bavaria. What else would you like to know? Weisser Rechtsanwalt is already my third start-up. I entered the TMT industries in the mid-1990s as Head of Legal of Germany’s first digital pay-TV platform DF 1 Digitales Fernsehen (KirchGroup), my first start-up. In early 2002, I opened the first German office of McDermott Will & Emery, my second start-up, and established the German TMT practice in the market, inter alia with the JUVE Award for Media 2005.
