M&A, corporate & tax - from corporate housekeeping to structure reform

You have the idea – we have the solution.

The lifecycle of a company is characterised by change. Company purchases or restructuring are just two well-known milestones. A change in the (tax) legislation is sometimes enough to require adjustments. Mid-sized and family-owned companies also face challenges related to planning company succession. Cooperation with third parties, company takeovers or joint ventures can pave the way for expansion, even beyond German borders. In order to remain competitive, some business fields and corporate areas must be shed. Issues that are decisive in this context cannot be reduced to simple legal questions. We will support you every step along the way - from developing an idea to integrating newly created structures into your company.

Lighten your everyday load.

Beyond the topics of M&A or transactions, the administrative everyday life of a company, an entrepreneur, a management board or managing director can also prove demanding. Company documentation and disclosure requirements tie up resources. Shareholder or supervisory board resolutions, annual publicity obligations, questions of representation or authority to sign, powers of attorney, but also external audits can be time-consuming. Take care of your business. Our team will gladly assume these duties for you as your outsourced legal department or its support.

If you need us, we will fight for you.

Even with the best intentions and perfect planning, disputes cannot always be prevented and are often costly and tedious. If shareholders are unable to agree, or former and current company owners are arguing, fast action is often required to prevent damages and protect the company’s existence. Moreover, corporate law conflicts decided in a courtroom are generally significant because they often involve important foundations for corporate decision making. And finally: unfortunately, the financial authority sometimes holds a different opinion than the affected company – lawsuits before the financial court are often inevitable. All of these corporate and tax law disputes must be managed with expertise and dedication. But also with an eye for that which is feasible, so as not to lose sight of economically sensible solutions.
