Our attorneys provide legal counsel to businesses representing virtually all aspects of commerce. Whether the client is a start-up or firmly established, our attorneys are adept at solving a business entity's complex issues and disputes. Our legal services include:

Mergers & Acquisitions

Cross-border transactions often involve greater complexity than domestic M&A deals, based on specific country laws and securities regulations, employment issues, jurisdictions, time zones, and cultures. We offer lawyers experienced in managing these issues throughout Germany, Poland, Slovakia and India. We have also built close relationships with experienced corporate lawyers in other countries. Our team works collaboratively across borders to identify and avoid issues that may slow down or derail a transaction, and ensure that the deal is structured to achieve the client's business goals. Our approach is to provide high-quality legal advice with practical hints and insights so you can close your transaction efficiently.

Joint Ventures

As today's business models often move away from outright ownership towards joint ventures and strategic alliances, you need the support of a strong team. Our clients want to leverage products, technology and customers, so we put a legal framework in place to help achieve these goals. We assist you at every stage - from the inception of the joint venture through to business planning, evaluation and implementation. We combine our experience of structuring joint venture vehicles with legal expertise in related fields. Via our network we cooperate with experienced external advisors from reputable tax consultancy and auditing firms. This puts us in a position to offer you an integrated service focused on your commercial needs.

Due to our extensive practical experience in national and cross-border insolvencies and restructurings, we are in a position to offer standardized debt recovery system and customized legal and practical solutions in close cooperation with credit institutions and/or insolvency administrators. Our services will be of particular interest if you are involved in the purchase of distressed assets or disinvestment. Thanks to the professional experience of our principal, we are well connected with the leading insolvency administrator firms in Germany.

PORTFOLIO EVALUATION & REGISTRATION
Many companies are unaware of the extent to which they can maximize and secure the value of their existing intellectual property and protect it against infringement. We review companies' business materials and existing intellectual property portfolios to identify intellectual property assets and determine which property can be registered with the appropriate agencies (DPMA, EPMA). We then register and maintain that intellectual property to ensure that the maximum protection is afforded under the law.

Our reorganisation consulting services specialise in restructuring and insolvency-related consulting. We aim to offer our clients a restructuring concept specially customized to your specific business needs. The possibility of rescue and reorganisation are assessed professionally and securely. Our assessment includes details on the expected time frame for the implementation, as well as estimated costs and expenses. If our reorganisation assesment is positive, you will receive a reorganisation concept, and we will consult and assist you during the implementation. Our services extend to:
