How to deal with German bureaucracy

Berlin is full of people from all over the world. Creative, productive and innovative people who are bringing a lot of new ideas, potentials and vibes with them. 
But before those people can get started succesfully, all of them have to deal with a sometimes quite annoying framework of bureaucratic hurdles, uncertanities about your rights and duties as well as with the lack of contacts, networks and places to go.
