Angelika Hellweger

Legal Director, Rahman Ravelli

Angelika is a specialist in international, high-level economic crime investigations and large-scale commercial disputes. As a multilingual lawyer she represents corporates and conglomerates across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the United States. Her comprehensive experience and thorough understanding of all aspects of white-collar crime have led to her successfully representing corporations in many notable multijurisdictional investigations and in some of the most complex commercial litigation. Her work on cases involving environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues has seen her become one of the lawyers at the forefront of this developing area. As part of Rahman Ravelli’s international sanctions team, she assesses the potential impact of all relevant laws and keeps up to speed with the rapidly-evolving rules and regulations to ensure clients adopt the correct approach and do not face prosecution or financial penalty. She coordinates work for international conglomerates in this field; advising them on regulatory matters, producing staff training and compliance programmes and ensuring their worldwide activities are legally compliant. Much of her sanctions practice is particularly focused on enforcement activities and the freezing and seizure of assets. Angelika speaks English, German, Spanish and Arabic; which is an asset in many international cases.
