Corporate Law

Corporate Law

From incorporation through growth and restructuring, we provide the legal support companies need at each stage of corporate life, taking account of their fields of activity, shareholding structures and governance needs. We prepare legal arrangements that support day-to-day operations and anticipate future disputes, and we assess relations among shareholders, management bodies and group companies as part of the corporate whole.

Combining advisory and contentious experience, we review the contractual and corporate aspects of company transactions together, and we act from legal due diligence through transaction documents and closing in investment, share-transfer, merger and restructuring work. Disputes arising from shareholder relations and from decisions of company organs are handled with the same continuity, and applications and claims to protect clients’ rights and interests are followed with care.
