Our range of services for you

Company succession

A successful succession is the crowning achievement of an entrepreneur's lifework. That is why special care is required here. As experienced advisors in business succession, we are happy to accompany you in this process and advise you holistically, taking into account aspects of business management, civil law, inheritance law and inheritance tax. Together we will work out an optimal solution for you, your family and your company in every respect.

If you do not have a family successor, but want to hand over your company to management, we will assist you in finding a fair and constructive solution that also secures the future of all parties involved and the continued existence of the company from a business management, financial and tax perspective.

Our advice: start the process in good time and not just when you can no longer do otherwise. Our contacts will accompany you throughout the entire handover process and, with the help of our lawyers, will also draw up the complete set of contracts.

Choosing the right legal form is one of the most important decisions a company has to make. A decision on the legal form is not only made in the start-up phase, but can also make sense in many other cases, for example when structural changes occur.

Management of corporate crises

If a company enters a crisis, it often needs more than just tax or legal advice. Every liquidity crisis is preceded by an earnings crisis, and this is preceded by a strategy crisis. The crisis usually begins long before it shows up in the figures. In order to uncover the causes of the difficulties and to combat them successfully, it is necessary to take a holistic view of the entire company.

Together with you, our experienced consultants analyse the situation of your company, trace the origin of the crisis and develop measures to overcome it.
