​

Company Formation

The corporate form, ownership structure, capital arrangements, management model and signing authority chosen at formation should support both the business’s immediate needs and its future investment or exit plans. Clear planning of the articles and key arrangements between owners can reduce uncertainty later.

 

Acquisitions and Share Transfers

When acquiring a business or shares in a company, it is important to review the target’s records, contracts, liabilities, key assets, ongoing disputes and the terms of the transaction. Depending on the structure, the price and payment arrangements, conditions to completion, warranties, confidentiality, non-compete obligations and post-completion liabilities may require particular attention.

 

Our aim is to translate the parties’ commercial agreement into clear and workable legal documentation, and to identify the key risks and completion steps visible before the transaction proceeds.

 

Mergers and Restructurings

Mergers and other corporate restructurings may involve several stages depending on the companies involved, their owners, creditor-related obligations and trade-registry processes. We assist in reviewing the objectives, documents and corporate decisions required for an organised process.
