We regularly advise companies in connection with :

LEGAL FORMS OF COMPANIES

Customised drafting of articles of association for the incorporation of your company, whether it is to carry out a commercial activity (such as a public limited company (S.A.), a limited liability company (S.àr.l.), a partnership limited by shares (S.C.A.), etc.), a civil law activity (such as a civil law partnership, a real estate company or a temporary association), whether it is profit-oriented or not (such as associations).

Depending on the purpose of the company, the type and number of shareholders and the desired liability, we will help you choose the most suitable company form for you.

SUPPORT IN THE ORGANISATION OF RELATIONS BETWEEN PARTNERS/SHAREHOLDERS

For ambitious projects, it is not uncommon for different companies to decide to form a joint venture in order to implement the project more easily and share the fruits of their synergies later on. In this context, we can help you find a balanced solution, in particular with regard to the rights of the various shareholders and the distribution rules, in order to ensure the continuity of your joint venture.

ORGANISATION OF THE MANAGEMENT OF YOUR COMPANY

Depending on the configuration of your company's management body and the number and identity of your managers, you may wish to organise the powers of the members of your management board or structure them according to your specific needs.
In this context, we are here to identify customised solutions that are adapted to your business and the management of your company.

REORGANISATION OF COMPANIES

In the course of a company's life, it may become necessary to adapt its structure, capital, form, purpose or some other aspect of its operations for the purpose of its own needs or of the requirements of the market in which it operates or of the customers it serves. Sometimes a company reaches the end of its purpose and it is necessary to decide how best to end it.
