Our expertise in corporate law lies in the complex interaction between companies, shareholders, managing directors, and supervisory bodies such as supervisory boards.
Are you planning to realize a business idea with one or more partners and start a company? One of the most important decisions is choosing the right legal form for your business – not just in theory, but also in practice and from a financial standpoint. Use the expertise of our specialized corporate law attorneys.
Anyone looking to start a new business or restructure an existing one will face questions about company structure, management, and how all elements interconnect. Key legal matters such as company formation, shareholder agreements, management responsibilities, resolutions, or shareholder exclusions all fall within the realm of corporate law.
Are you planning for business succession? Facing internal conflicts that affect operations? We provide practical legal advice and representation.
Every business decision – from formation to restructuring or dissolution – carries legal consequences. These may involve changes to shareholder structures or management appointments, all of which typically require shareholder resolutions. This is especially true for controversial decisions, such as the exclusion of a shareholder.
Profit distribution decisions can also spark disputes and even endanger the company’s future. Balancing shareholder returns (including tax implications) with the long-term sustainability of the company requires thoughtful planning. Additionally, corporate and tax law regulations must be carefully observed.
Legal and financial missteps can have far-reaching consequences – sometimes years down the line. Every business decision carries potential risks in terms of tax law, corporate liability, insolvency, and more.
We help you incorporate these factors into your decision-making. As specialists in corporate law, we work with you to find tailored solutions. Benefit from our deep expertise, ongoing knowledge of current legal developments, and the interdisciplinary strengths of our law firm. Our goal is always to identify the most economically advantageous solution for your business – and when necessary, assert it in court.
Urgent legal intervention may be required to prevent irreversible harm. We’re experienced in handling such matters in fast-track court proceedings.
We also specialize in disputes between companies and their managing organs – most commonly between managing directors and the company, but also between the supervisory board or advisory board and executive leadership. Disagreements may also arise between internal corporate bodies.
In such cases, it’s essential to explore your options early and avoid missing critical legal deadlines. Many conflicts can be prevented in advance with clear service agreements and well-drafted internal regulations.
Unauthorized competition or contract breaches by a shareholder or managing director can quickly become existential threats. Immediate action is needed – often via a cease-and-desist letter. Conversely, individuals are sometimes wrongly accused of such behavior and need legal defense to prevent unjust consequences.
In limited liability companies (GmbHs), managing directors have heightened responsibilities regarding solvency and over-indebtedness. Failure to comply can result in personal liability or even criminal charges. If you suspect signs of crisis, don’t hesitate to rely on our experienced legal team
A critical decision at the very beginning of your entrepreneurial journey. GbR, GmbH, UG, OHG… which structure is right for you?
