Our corporate lawyers have extensive experience in the implementation of spin-offs. We advise both Austrian subsidiaries of international groups on the separation of business divisions or entire businesses (or parts thereof) and domestic SMEs seeking a spin-off, for example in the context of business succession or asset separation.

- support in negotiations with business partners, shareholders, creditors, and works councils
- organization of and support during general meetings and signing dates

We ensure that all legal requirements of the reorganization process are carefully addressed and properly implemented. Because the tax aspects of corporate restructurings and spin-offs are of essential importance, we work closely with tax advisors and auditors and, where required, can also connect our clients with the relevant experts from our network.
Your Benefit from Our Expertise
A suitable corporate structure is crucial to the long-term success of a company. It is often necessary to adapt existing structures, whether to separate business areas, prepare for the sale of a company, facilitate business succession, or implement a broader strategic realignment. Corporate spin-offs make it possible to transfer business divisions, business units, or shareholdings to new or existing companies in a targeted manner. Our corporate law experts support you in creating the optimal structure for your business.
