PRACTICE OVERVIEW
A flexible corporate structure is essential for regularly changing environments and business ambitions. We understand that so far as business structures go, one size does not fit all. For every foreign investor, the establishment of local operations is a crucial first step in their investment so we work hard to understand our clients’ business objectives and risk strategies and advise them on suitable structures, corporate governance requirements and tax concerns.
We guide clients through the minefield of legal issues involved, advising them on the general framework for foreign investment; selecting the most appropriate form of legal entity; formation of the legal entity; applications for government approvals, licences and registrations; corporate governance issues; shareholder, partnership, joint venture and management agreements.
We advise on all aspects of mergers and acquisitions, disposals, joint ventures, spin-offs and restructurings. Our advice brings together expert understanding of corporate matters with employment, competition, public and administrative law and intellectual property expertise.
