We advise on the following topics:

  • Advice on organizational structure (corporate governance)
  • Contractual agreements with executive bodies (general managers, members of executive, supervisory, and advisory boards)
  • D&O liability
  • Equity and debt financing (capital increases, shareholder loans)
  • Cash pools
  • Preparing and holding of shareholder and general meetings
  • Group law
  • Transactions under reorganization law (mergers, spin-offs, change of legal form)
  • Joint ventures and strategic partnerships
  • Matters of capital market law and restructuring
  • In addition, we advise our clients on all corporate compliance issues (preventive advice, including by drafting guidelines and training materials, and advice on handling compliance violations).

    Our work also focuses on representing clients in disputes, both before ordinary courts and in arbitral proceedings, for example in shareholder disputes or shareholder actions.

The Liability of Managing Directors

Our clients include nationally and internationally active companies of all sizes.
A central issue in advising them is the question of the personal responsibility (liability) of the executive bodies of corporations - in the case of a limited liability company (GmbH), that is, the managing director. More information on the topic of managing director liability can be found in the brochure by Dr. Thomas Hausbeck.
