Finding a suitable successor presents entrepreneurs with major emotional and time-related challenges. It is important to know what is going to happen to your own company once you retire. Entrepreneurs usually have very close ties to the company which they once founded and managed. The thought of leaving it (due to succession, retirement, death or invalidity) can be difficult to engage with. An early assessment with the aim of identifying wishes and intentions is the key to success. We therefore take care of all preparations for and the handling of the succession, so as to ensure that it is conducted in a manner which is legally sound and tax-optimized.

Something which used to be good isn’t necessarily so forever: A company develops over time, and the legal form originally chosen might not be the right one for the company’s succession plan. The restructuring (reorganization, merger or spin-off) of your company might be the best solution given the circumstances. If it is well planned and tackled at an early stage, you can save yourself a lot of irritation, fear and costs. Not only can we advise you on the perfect set-up, we can also implement it for you. We analyze all tax-related, legal and social security law-related aspects and work with you to jointly determine the best way forward.
