Your benefit from our expertise
A suitable corporate structure is crucial for the long-term success of a company. It is often necessary to adapt existing corporate structures - be it to separate business areas, to prepare for the sale of a company or Business Succession or as part of a strategic realignment. Spin-offs under company law can be used to transfer business areas (operations or parts of operations) or shareholdings to new or existing companies in a targeted manner. Our experts in corporate law will support you in creating the optimal structure for your company.
