Comparative law notes

Germany

If you target audience is American, this recognized American legal term will be very helpful to convey the principle duties and responsibilities of the German "Insolvenzverwalter". However, we tend to steer clear of any derivative of the word "trust", since they do not exist under German law. Our preference in "insolvency administrtor".
