Inheritance Law

Good corporate management includes far-sighted planning. Anyone who gives some thought to the future will also deal early with making appropriate arrangements for corporate succession. Our interdisciplinary corporate succession teams will work with you to develop a structured succession process – so you, as a business person, your successor, and everyone else involved (like family members) have the right legal protection, and the transfer can take place with the lowest possible tax impact.

There are endless answers to the question of a well-qualified successor. And the feasible paths for corporate succession are just as diverse. The right answer calls for a knowledge of inheritance law, corporate law and tax law, but also for intuition that helps do justice to the interests of everyone involved, and finds a satisfactory solution for everyone. Apart from ensuring a company’s success for the long term, these matters regularly also involve the business owner’s individual family situation. We’re well aware of these sensitive interests, and can assist you as a capable, constructive advisor.
