Commercial and corporate law
Our services
Company incorporation
We advise on the incorporation of your company. From choosing the appropriate corporate form (such as a public limited company, limited liability company (LLC), foundation, general partnership, limited partnership, or sole proprietorship), preparing the documents of incorporation, to registration at the commercial register – we support you at every step. Our goal is to ensure that your company starts legally flawless and successful.
Corporate housekeeping
We help you optimize your corporate housekeeping and create tailor-made inhouse and intra-group contracts. Whether employment contracts, service agreements, loan agreements, or supply contracts within your corporate group – we ensure that all agreements are legally sound and clearly formulated to guarantee smooth processes throughout your group.
Relocation of the registered office
We support you with a legally compliant relocation of your company’s registered office (both to Liechtenstein and from Liechtenstein to another country). From evaluating and deciding on the new location to implementing all necessary legal steps – we stand by your side.
Capital measures (capital increase and decrease)
We advise on all capital measures of your company. Whether it is a capital increase for growth financing or a capital reduction for restructuring – we develop suitable strategies and take care of the legal details to ensure that your company is financially equipped to the optimum.
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A)
We offer legal due diligence to you either as a seller (vendor due diligence) or as a buyer (buyer due diligence) and accompany you through the entire MA process to ensure a successful transaction.
Depending on the assignment, our legal due diligence includes a careful review of the corporate structure, existing contracts, ongoing or impending legal disputes and compliance with the relevant laws and regulations. In this way, we identify potential risks and enable you to make informed decisions. As a buyer, you know the potential risks and as a seller you have the opportunity to eliminate any weak points before the transaction is concluded.
When drafting and negotiating the purchase agreement (Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) or Asset Purchase Agreement), we ensure that the purchase price, warranties and guarantees, conditions and completion of the transaction are clearly and legally regulated. A key component of the purchase agreement is to protect the buyer against the risks identified in the due diligence. This can be done, for example, through special liability clauses, rights of withdrawal or price adjustments in order to protect your interests in the best possible way and ensure that all legal requirements are met.
While acquiring or selling a company, we also support you with integrating the acquired company into your existing structure or with restructuring your existing organization.
Trust our experience and expertise to acquire your target or sell your company successfully with us.
Joint ventures
We guide you through the whole process of forming joint ventures. From the initial idea, through negotiation, to the implementation of the agreements – we help you forge strategic partnerships that open new growth opportunities and create synergies for your company.
Shareholders' agreements / syndicate agreements
We support you with the drafting and negotiation of shareholders’ agreements. These shareholders’ agreements are crucial for clearly regulating the cooperation and decision-making processes of the shareholders and avoiding conflicts. We ensure that your interests are represented to the best possible manner.
Dispute avoidance through structured contract drafting
Forward-looking drafting of articles of association and shareholder agreements significantly reduces conflict risks. We develop clear rules for governance, conflict resolution and exit scenarios.
Shareholder disputes
We advise when it comes to shareholder disputes and help you to find solutions. Starting with mediation, through legal advice, to representation in court – we stand by your side to quickly and sustainably resolve conflicts, giving you space to focus on your core business.
Contestation of resolutions and disputes regarding deficiencies in resolutions
We support you in challenging or defending shareholder and board resolutions. Incorrect resolutions can have considerable economic consequences – we ensure that they are clarified quickly, if necessary by means of interim injunctions.
Director’s liability (Business Judgment Rule)
We advise you comprehensively on issues regarding director’s liability and the business judgment rule. Our goal is to minimize the liability risks for managing directors and board members and to ensure that your decisions are made in compliance with legal requirements.
Moreover, we support both shareholders as well as managing directors and board members in enforcing and defending related claims.
Post-M&A disputes (disputes following company acquisitions)
After company acquisitions, disputes often arise over guarantees, warranties, purchase price adjustments or liability issues. We assist you in enforcing or defending against such claims – in court or in arbitration proceedings.
Temporary injunctions and urgent measures
In time-critical situations, we enforce your claims quickly. Interim injunctions make it possible to stop unlawful decisions, secure assets or immediately stop infringements of the law.
Restructuring and reorganization
We offer support for restructuring and reorganization of your company in order to stabilize and put it on the right track in the long term. In difficult situations, we take the lead and are available for negotiations with creditors, shareholders and banks, drafting and reviewing financing agreements, as well as ensuring compliance with the relevant legal provisions in Liechtenstein. Our expertise ensures that your restructuring and reorganization measures are implemented legally and economically sound. Lead your company out of the crisis with us and let us create a stable foundation for the future.
Insolvency and liquidation
We advise on insolvency and liquidation procedures. From assessing the existence of a reason for insolvency, preparing the insolvency filing, and managing the process to realizing the assets – we ensure that all legal requirements are met. We will guide you through this difficult phase.
Insolvency-related disputes and liability issues
Complex legal disputes often arise in crisis situations. We represent you in insolvency-related disputes, particularly in the areas of liability, avoidance and creditor conflicts.
Terminations and appeals against terminations
We represent you in disputes in connection with the termination of legal relationships under company law – in particular the termination of shareholder positions, management contracts and board functions. We examine the effectiveness of terminations and consistently enforce or defend your claims in the event of unjustified or incorrect terminations.
License, franchise, distribution, and other commercial agreements
We support you in the drafting and negotiation of license, franchise, distribution and other commercial agreements (e.g. business development agreements). We ensure that your contracts as a producer and supplier, commercial agent, authorized dealer, franchisor and franchisee are legally compliant and promote your business relationships. This enables you to successfully expand your business and tap into new markets.
