Forward-looking transition - strategic legal advice
A decisive factor for successful Business Succession is early and forward-looking planning. If descendants or family members show an interest in taking over the company, it can make sense to prepare them for their new role in the long term and gradually transfer responsibility to them within the company. The targeted development of management skills and the gradual handover of decision-making powers through to the complete takeover of company management should be carefully planned and implemented under company law. This not only ensures the success of the company, but also guarantees a smooth transition to the next generation.
External succession - support in the purchase or sale process
If an intra-family Business Succession is not desired or not possible, we support you in the search for a suitable external successor. Whether selling to a competitor, an investor or a third party - we prepare all the legal bases for the sale of the company and guide you as the seller through the entire process. In doing so, we ensure that the company purchase agreement is optimally negotiated from both a legal and tax perspective to give you a carefree start to your retirement. Buyers of a company also benefit from our comprehensive legal support. We carry out careful legal Due diligence and examine the company's structures to ensure they are fit for the future. In particular, we analyze relevant contracts, legal risks and potential liability issues. Based on the results of this review, we draw up and negotiate the company purchase agreement with the seller in order to provide you with the best possible legal protection.
Legal diversity in Business Succession
Business Succession involves a large number of complex legal issues. In particular, company law and Inheritance law (right to a compulsory portion) often play a decisive role, but other areas of law such as Employment, Labor and Human Resources , trade law and tax and financial issues must be included in the planning.
