Whitepeak Law assists executives and investors through corporate restructuring transactions: mergers, absorptions, partial asset contributions, demergers, and legal form conversions.
Structuring and execution of merger transactions: merger by absorption, merger by creation of a new company. Merger agreement, valuation of contributions, auditor report, and completion formalities.
Completion of partial asset contributions subject or not to the demerger regime. Identification of business lines, contribution documentation, shareholder approval, and legal formalities.
Conversion of an SA into an SAS, an SARL into an SA, or any other form. Analysis of the legal, tax, and employment consequences, drafting of new articles of association, and completion of formalities.
Restructuring of corporate groups: interposition of holding companies, dividend upstreaming, structure simplification, management of loss-making subsidiaries, and dissolution of redundant entities.
Support through internal reorganisation transactions: structure simplification, business combination, governance optimisation, and preparation for a disposal transaction.
Post-acquisition restructuring: integration of the target into the acquirer's group, rationalisation of structures, absorption of subsidiaries, and regulatory compliance.
Support for companies in strategic transition: change of reference shareholder, opening of capital to new investors, preparation for a stock exchange listing.
Restructurings involving licensed companies: coordination with supervisory authorities to preserve authorisations during merger, demerger, or conversion transactions.
Each restructuring commits the company over the long term. Whitepeak Law analyses the legal, tax, regulatory, and employment consequences of each scenario before recommending an approach.
Every matter is handled by the founding partner. First point of contact, last reviewer. No delegation of judgment on structuring transactions for the group.
Restructurings require close coordination with tax, employment, and accounting advisors. Whitepeak Law leads this coordination and ensures the consistency of the overall documentation.
Confidential initial consultation to analyse your situation, identify the available restructuring scenarios, and define the best legal approach.
