Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A)

Legal Advisory

Taking a holistic approach to mergers and acquisitions (M&A), we provide legal assistance to company owners, professional investors, PE / VC funds, real estate funds, financial institutions – on both sides of the buyer / acquiring company and the seller / acquired company.

 

We work closely with financial and tax advisors, investment banks, PE / VC funds and other entities involved in M&A transactions, and we also coordinate their actions on the Client’s request.

 

Our competitive advantage is an extensive and practical knowledge of corporate law and an excellent understanding of balance sheet law, M&A accounting methods and tax-related issues of M&A transactions.

 

Thanks to our interdisciplinary competences and comprehensive legal solutions, we create added value for our Clients.

 

Acting as project leaders, we provide our Clients with full coverage of multidisciplinary competencies for the execution of M&A transactions, assuring their smooth completion and closure.

 

Our main goal is to protect legal interests of our Clients, which is why we exercise corporate ownership supervision at every stage of the transaction, from legal due diligence, through transaction structuring and implementation, to post-merger integration.

We provide:

  • support in reviewing strategic options, including sale / purchase of restructured assets,
  • comprehensive legal advice at every stage of M&A transactions, including preparation of NDAs, LOIs, investment teasers, conducting legal due diligence, modelling the most optimal transaction structure (including possible exit scenarios) and implementation of the developed transaction structure as well as post-merger integration activities,
