We have several years of experience in assisting clients who want to acquire other companies or sell their life’s work. Depending on the size of the transaction, we can help with all or parts of the process, possibly in collaboration with other advisers who are typically involved in the process.
Business transfers can be a long and complex process involving internal and external stakeholders. The scope depends on the size, complexity, and operating conditions of the business/company.
When considering buying or selling a business or company, there are legal considerations you should keep in mind. To avoid unpleasant surprises in business transfers as a buyer or seller, it’s important to have a business legal advisor and an accountant involved in the process. This way, you can ensure that you don’t encounter any unpleasant surprises during the business transfer, both as a buyer and seller.
Possible situations and forms of transfer (Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A))
Transfers can be either a share transfer (where ownership is transferred) or an asset transfer (where the company’s assets are transferred) between buyer and seller.
