Corporate & Commercial

We structure and set up new companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures and strategic alliances.

We advise on and handle complex and heavily negotiated corporate transactions, such as mergers & acquisitions, investments in US equities, restructurings, dispositions, liquidations and dissolutions. In connection with acquisitions, we conduct and manage legal due diligence investigations, prepare and negotiate the agreements (including the letter of intent, term sheet or memorandum of understanding to the purchase, shareholder and other ancillary agreements) and handle the closing and the post-closing.

We handle general corporate matters in our function as corporate secretary and/or general counsel for the US, including advice on corporate governance issues and attention to periodic corporate filings, corporate minutebooks and other corporate housekeeping matters.

We advise on and handle major contracts and commercial matters, such as distribution and sales agency arrangements, general terms and conditions, supply agreements and licensing arrangements as well as related legal issues and considerations.

We identify and recommend third party professionals and vendors to help our clients maximize success in their forays into the US marketplace.
