M&A (Mergers & Acquisitions)

We have particular expertise in cross-border transactions, where, as lead counsel, we coordinate international legal teams and harmonise different legal systems, regulatory regimes and compliance requirements. We advise on foreign-trade approval procedures, structure multi-jurisdictional holding setups and accompany complex cross-border deals from planning through to successful integration.

In the private equity and venture capital space, we support both funds and portfolio companies throughout the investment and exit cycle. This includes leveraged buy-outs, management buy-ins, growth financings, mezzanine structures and stock-market-oriented exit strategies. We understand the specific requirements of institutional investors and develop solutions that are both legally robust and commercially efficient.

A critical success factor of every M&A transaction is post-merger integration. We support you in the corporate-law and operational merger of organisations, the harmonisation of corporate-governance structures, the employment-law integration of teams as well as the implementation of unified compliance systems. The goal is to realise the targeted synergies quickly and sustainably.

Our specialist lawyer for commercial and corporate law Maximilian Rohrbach has extensive experience in complex M&A transactions and works closely with investment banks and auditors. We combine legal excellence with strategic business acumen and ensure that your transaction is not only legally impeccable but also commercially successful.
