What this is about
Administrative decisions — from a Jobcenter notice to a health-insurance rejection to a tax assessment — are regularly defective in form. An incorrect or missing right-to-appeal notice (Rechtsbehelfsbelehrung) extends the objection deadline by law from one month to up to one year. In practice, almost nobody knows this.
What's new
- Automatic notice review. Every analysis now recognises whether a document is a formal administrative act, and checks the right-to-appeal notice for form, deadline, addressee and the correct legal basis. Defects are named specifically.
- The correct deadline instead of the standard deadline. Where there are defects, the deadline extends under Section 58 VwGO (administrative law), Section 356 AO (tax law), or Section 66 SGG (social law) to up to one year. We calculate it and show you the effective deadline directly in the result.
- 15 new use cases:
- Family law: maintenance disclosure, youth-welfare-office letters, divorce petitions, contact/access arrangements.
- Social law: Jobcenter (SGB II), Federal Employment Agency (unemployment benefit I, blocking period), social welfare office (SGB XII), health insurance, pension insurance (DRV) notices, SGB I duties to cooperate, hearings before withdrawal/reimbursement (Section 24 SGB X).
- Administrative and tax law: tax assessment notices, objection decisions, administrative notices (housing benefit, BAföG student support, child benefit, parental allowance), hearings under Section 28 VwVfG.
- Three new legal-area categories in the overview: family law, social law, and administrative & tax law.
Positioning
These areas offer an initial assessment and orientation — not representation. For social-court, tax-court and family-court proceedings we connect you with specialist lawyers — in family law, this is even mandatory (compulsory legal representation under Section 114 FamFG).
Configurable per country
We maintain the mandatory components of a right-to-appeal notice and the respective extended deadlines per country in a central rule set — built from the start so that we can add new countries without changing the analysis itself.

AI is not a lawyer
We check form and deadlines and deliver deadline-safe drafts. This doesn't replace a comprehensive review of the individual case.
