European Union Law and Litigation
Dr. Rainer Hable. Attorney at Law in Vienna. Constitutional lawyer and litigator.
Rainer Hable is an Attorney at Law at Bluebrick Chambers, a law firm specialising in issues of European Union law, in particular litigation before the Court of Justice of the European Union and Member State Courts as to points of EU law.
Our expertise is built on over two decades of experience in EU law in all its variations and from all perspectives – in EU institutions, national governments, and the courtroom.
European. Bluebrick Chambers is a European law firm. We are representing clients from inside and outside the European Union in a wide range of areas of European Union law.
Focused. Bluebrick Chambers represents clients exclusively in European Union law, with a particular focus on litigation before Union courts as well as Member States courts as to points of EU law. While our comprehensive and intimate knowledge of the essential principles and procedural instruments allows us to tackle any challenge in EU law, we have built over many years a particular strength in EU constitutional law – including issues of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, the four freedoms of the European Single Market, transparency and access to EU institutions’ documents, EU citizenship, and EU foreign relations & security.
Independent. Our clients are European and international companies, non-governmental organisations, and individuals. Also, we are regularly instructed by fellow law firms as co-counsel regarding points of EU law and EU litigation. From case to case, we collaborate with a network of best friends’ law firms across jurisdictions of EU Member States as well as internationally. Our independent structure allows us to exclusively serve our clients’ needs without any conflicts of interest.
