M&A Legal
Company expansion through the acquisition of another company, the expansion of competitiveness by increasing market shares, the development of new markets nationally and internationally, the acquisition of new investors, the achievement of cost reductions, the acquisition of know-how and the increase of the company's future viability through appropriate succession planning - all good reasons for M&A transactions.
At the same time, the environment for corporate transactions has become faster and more complex in recent years - with increased risk potential. The best way to counteract this is with a specialized M&A team. The lawyers at Ebner Stolz have extensive transaction experience as well as an in-depth understanding of the business, which they apply in a targeted manner on the buyer, seller and financier side. They are able to correctly assess the interests of all parties involved in the transaction and to find pragmatically suitable solutions. Thus, the lawyers at Ebner Stolz provide comprehensive advice on national and international M&A transactions and, if necessary, are happy to call in their colleagues from the other specialist areas. In this way, the appropriate transaction structures are developed and efficiently implemented for companies and investors in all sectors.
This is by far not only about the negotiation of the company purchase agreement. We also provide support in drafting participation and joint venture agreements, shareholder agreements, partnership agreements, financing agreements and security agreements as well as other financing and participation structures. We also advise on private equity and venture capital transactions. Finally, we assist in the development and implementation of employee participation schemes.
What sets us apart is our interdisciplinary work hand in hand with our tax advisors, auditors and management consultants. In addition, you benefit from our close integration in all areas of commercial law, such as labour law, real estate law, IT law as well as antitrust and competition law.
