Mergers & Acquisitions
We support our clients (industrial players, funds, entrepreneurs, etc.) in M&A cases of all kinds (disposals, acquisitions, spin-offs, private equity, joint ventures, venture capital, etc.). Our department includes lawyers with specific expertise in cross-border transactions involving several countries.

- The conduct of the legal and tax analysis prior to the implementation of the operation and its structuring
- The organization of the data room and due diligence
- Drafting and negotiation of preparatory acts (confidentiality, exclusivity, process letters, non-binding and binding LOI, etc.)
- The audit as well as the negotiation and drafting of the contractual documentation relating to the transaction (assignment contract, guarantee contract, transitional agreements, etc.)
- In international operations, with a special expertise in in-bound and out-bound operations.
