We help our client create his or her business and assist in addressing the hard questions that must be asked and answered :

• What form of incorporation to choose in France (SA, SAS, SARL, SNC, SCA)? This decision is critical - as it will of course have fiscal consequences - but will also affect the relationship between shareholders and directors with regard to their respective responsibilities, as well as their fiscal and social status.
• We attach great importance to fully understanding our clients' needs and expectations. We will advise you from the get-go as to the structure that will best suit your business now and in the future.

We will provide the advice you need to develop your business, be it by external growth (mergers & acquisitions), by increasing your capital or by issuing bonds.

• Mergers & Acquisitions
  Risk Management by asking the right questions up-front: What guaranties are necessary? (due diligence, guaranties related to corporate liabilities); How do you ensure the company will continue as a going concern? What kind of incentives can you propose to former managers should they decide to stay with the company?
• Issuing bonds, Immediate or Differed Increases in Capital (issuance of complex securities)
  We'll help you make an educated choice, in light of all the relevant legal and fiscal consequences, with proper consideration of the feasibility of the project and its implications on the balance of power.

Finally, we'll help you manage conflict, be it pre-litigation or in the midst of litigation. We can help you deal with conflict between shareholders (majority/minority, practicing/non practicing partners in an "SEL"), between the acquiree and the acquiror, as well as with employees.
