M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions)
Our M&A team focuses on takeovers under private law within the scope of company acquisitions, mergers and capital increases. Our advice includes the structuring and planning of share deals as well as takeovers of businesses (asset deals), support in initial discussions with potential buyers or sellers, the split-off of assets before execution (pre-closing carve-outs), the performance of due diligence reviews, and preparation of the necessary documents and negotiations.
We work closely together with our colleagues from other fields of law, in particular tax law, who support us in structuring transactions. We represent a wide range of domestic and foreign clients, including strategic and financial investors such as private equity funds and venture capitalists, international corporate groups, family businesses, start-ups and their founders.
