Conflict resolution without collateral damage

Thanks to our extensive litigation experience, we are well-equipped to represent our clients in disputes and help them avoid financial losses. This applies, for example, to the removal of corporate officers, actions by shareholders to challenge or confirm corporate resolutions, and the exit and severance of individual shareholders as part of restructuring measures.

Supporting change, facilitating transactions

When restructuring makes economic sense, it often gives rise to a multitude of legal hurdles—whether under corporate law, labor law, tax law, or compliance regulations. We work with our clients to navigate these hurdles, for example, in mergers, spin-offs, changes in legal form, or in the structuring of contractual groups. Through comprehensive yet solution-oriented contractual arrangements, future conflicts can often be avoided.

Corporate Transactions, Mergers & Acquisitions

We advise German and international clients on corporate acquisitions and equity investments. Many of our transactions do not require large teams of advisors. It is our attorneys—who have extensive experience in these transactions and a keen eye for what matters most—who increase the likelihood of success.

Insquare Attorneys at Law has proven expertise in all types of corporate acquisitions. We assist our clients in every phase of the transaction, starting with structuring, preparing or conducting due diligence, entering into confidentiality agreements or a letter of intent (LoI), and subsequently negotiating the purchase or sale of shares, ownership interests, or individual assets.

We also have experience in special situations, particularly in acquisitions arising from insolvency.
