We support entrepreneurs in establishing and growing their business.
We are happy to provide extensive advice, for example, for drafting or changing partnership agreements, share organization or restructuring, shareholder disputes and questions related to managerial liability.
Business creation:
You’re planning to start a business—even with a strategic and/or investing shareholder? We will be happy to assist you with the analysis and negotiation of interests, the creation or changes of the partnership agreement and the writing of special shareholder agreements.
Transformation:
You would like to transform your existing company into a limited company or limited partnership? We would be happy to assist you with such transformations by drawing up the required contractual framework and supporting its implementation.
Investment management:
Should the company’s investment structure be changed? Should a certain resolution be passed within the company? Should disputes be settled within the company? We would be happy to assist you with these questions and challenges as a shareholder.
Contract management:
We would be glad to assist you with business decisions during our meeting and advise you on any possible legal consequences.
Investments in and cooperation with start-ups create new business structures: resulting in the „Venture capital company“.
We would be happy to assist you with the analysis and negotiation of interests and with the drafting of venture capital company contracts. We focus especially on the assessment of (both sides) investments and the creation of a basis for innovation—while creating value.
Reinventing the company – reinventing the deal:
Existing business models are being reassessed and must sometimes be readjusted to the current reality. New, innovative business models are being developed.
We would be happy to assist you with drafting contracts, so you can develop and use new and innovative business models.
Questions about taxation can be key components of business planning and management, but also as part of investment management.
We will assist you in analyzing tax questions and finding fiscal solutions. We will advise and assist decision makers with existing tax responsibilities and those seeking to prevent tax losses.
