CORPORATE LAW: ORGANISATION OF COMPANIES AND BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS

Corporate law is one of the key competencies of the law firm. Our specialist lawyers provide a comprehensive service covering all issues surrounding the organisation of companies and for all business transactions. Our team of experts, who possess the highest levels of expertise and experience in the negotiation and management of company-related processes, is at your service. We never lose sight of the interrelationships between issues concerning tax and business management. Our Notary's Office also possesses recognised expertise in this area.

 

We provide you with support in founding, financing and structuring your company or your group of companies. We help you to plan and manage project companies and joint ventures or accompany you during national and international business acquisitions and shareholding agreements (venture capital). We will, of course, also advise you during times of crisis, in the event of disputes under commercial law and in the establishment of an appropriate succession plan.

 

Alongside our sometimes leading regional position within the JUVE Handbook of German Commercial Law Firms and in The Legal 500, we have also been specifically singled out as a renowned law firm for corporate law and mergers and acquisitions.
