Board liability self-check
Choose your role and place your liability position in a few minutes.
BRANDAUER Rechtsanwälte
Foundation law team, Salzburg and throughout Austria
Your matter is handled by a team combining corporate law, asset succession, real estate law and dispute resolution. We review the foundation declaration, board resolutions, information rights and liability issues and set out clear next steps. Mag. Bernhard Brandauer is responsible for the legal advice, supported by further specialised lawyers of the firm where the matter requires it.
The foundation board is liable for prudent management. This self-assessment helps to look at the ongoing handling of care, conflicts, compliance and documentation in a structured way.
It does not replace legal review. It is also not a prognosis on whether a concrete liability arises; it only frames the risk fields.
Our team is available for an in-depth assessment.
Frame your foundation situation.
Tell us first in which role you are asking. Then answer a few questions on the four axes of this tool. You will receive a risk profile, your key points and concrete next steps.
Note: This self-assessment is a general orientation on § 17 and § 29 PSG (as of July 2026) and does not replace advice in the individual case.
