Mergers and Acquisitions, Due Diligence

We provide expert analyses which aid in selecting a suitable transaction structure, whether in the form of an equity interest transfer, sale of a plant or part thereof, and other forms of asset deals. We also assist in preparing for the restructuring of a company prior to its sale, including its division and spin-off of part of its assets to another company.

We draft and negotiate term sheets to help the parties define the basic terms of the transaction. For mergers and other conversions, we draft detailed legal and tax step-by-step guidelines. We also act as coordinators for transactions (including cross-border and foreign transactions) and for all corporate restructurings.

We perform comprehensive due diligence to identify potential transaction risks. Thanks to our broad range of specialists,we are able to conduct audits in all sectors.

We draft and negotiate complete transaction documentation driven by the desire to ensure a smooth transaction while respecting the client's interests. In particular, we take into account the uniqueness of each transaction, with our main objective being to identify and appropriately address key issues that differ in each transaction.

We assist with drafting documents for regulatory approvals (e.g., from the Competition Authority), and also advise foreign investors outside the EU on foreign direct investments (FDIs).

We provide comprehensive support in structuring shareholder agreements that govern the rights and obligations of shareholders. Our services cover the structuring and drafting of agreements and related transactions from the initial proposal to the negotiation of key parameters, thereby contributing to the long-term protection of our clients' investments.
