Acquisitions & Reorganisations

Our tax group closely works together with our M&A practitioners. In close harmony with our corporate lawyers we counsel strategic buyers and sellers structuring their transactions, like asset transactions, share purchase agreements, management buy-outs (MBO), management buy-ins (MBI), leveraged buy-outs (LBI), recapitalisation and reorganisations. We can help with cross-border tax implications, purchase and sale structures, tax warranties and indemnities as well with the optimization of company’s tax attributes. Furthermore, our tax team has a broad experience in providing due diligence investigations on tax matters.

Employee Benefits

Together with our employment law practice, our tax lawyers have extensive experience in the advice on employee benefits, salary splits, secondments and incentive schemes, like option plans, stock appreciation rights (SAR’s), participation plans for key employees, profit-sharing bonds, exit strategies in case of dismissal etcetera, both domestically as in cross-border situations. In that respect our tax group also covers the social securities implications in those areas. For more information, Executives & Employee benefits.

We are convinced that true quality and sustainability in advice is only possible with a personal approach. We work with a broad range of worldwide referents, based on a trustful personal relationship.

As a service to our established client base, we also provide and/or coordinate maintenance services like filing of tax returns, often in close conjunction with external and independent accountants firms and trust offices.
