Corporate law
Company law is the basis for almost every type of entrepreneurial activity.
We advise our clients throughout all phases of a company's life cycle, from formation to dissolution. Our advisory services include assistance in selecting the most commercially appropriate corporate structure, drafting articles of association, shareholder agreements, and incorporation documents, as well as corporate restructuring and capital transactions.
We see ourselves as entrepreneurial advisors and strategic partners in the field of corporate law and support our clients at every stage of their company's development. We regularly represent foreign investors as they enter the German market and are well-versed in the legal and administrative requirements for the establishment and management of German companies by foreign investors and corporate groups.
Mergers & Acquisitions
We represent both buyers and sellers in corporate acquisitions and view ourselves as advisors who approach each transaction from a commercial perspective. Here, too, our particular expertise lies in cross-border transactions involving foreign buyers or acquisition targets. Depending on the specifics of each case, we collaborate with trusted partners both domestically and internationally.
Transactions Between Affiliated Companies
Transfer pricing regulations require that the provision of services between affiliated companies be governed by prior written agreements to demonstrate compliance with the arm's-length principle and to avoid tax disadvantages for the parties involved, particularly in international contexts. We assist our clients in structuring service relationships between affiliated companies in a legally sound manner.
