Mergers and acquisitions
We have extensive experience advising major global corporations on high-value and complex transactions. Our transaction advisory lawyers bring many years of experience advising both listed companies and privately held businesses, across simple and complex structures, and on domestic as well as cross-border deals. Every M&A transaction has its own specific characteristics, and we understand the complexities and opportunities they present. We recognise that transaction negotiations may determine nothing less than a company’s continued existence.
The impeccable legal expertise of our lawyers is complemented by a substantial understanding of the specifics of different economic areas, which is due to years of cooperation with large companies and investors in the field. Financial services or agriculture, retail or health care, insurance or information technology – we know the regulations and market mechanisms in this area and the resulting impact on the proposed transaction.
Our in-depth knowledge enables us to add significant value in the planning of M&A transactions and greatly enhances the likelihood of successful execution, even for the most ambitious ventures. Our more than 700 transactional and corporate law lawyers operate as a globally integrated network, delivering coordinated advice on extremely complex cross-border transactions.
