Corporate Law - M & A
Partners: Jean-Pierre Langlais, Jean-Philippe Jacob
National and international transactions analyzed by the Corporate - M&A Department and by the specialized cross department team
The Corporate - M&A Department is headed by two partners who in their former firms acquired extensive experience in transactions, structuring and negotiation of complex transactions (debt financing, acquisitions, restructuring, joint ventures and strategic alliances, shareholder agreements, leveraged transactions, refinancing). These complex operations take place in both international and national contexts.
One of MBA's special characteristics as regards corporate law is its close connection to tax law, a structuring element which can be crucial in corporate transactions, and one which should be taken into account at an early stage of negotiations.
Moreover, the MBA Corporate Law - M & A Department provides general assistance and legal counsel in all areas of business law and contract law to its regular clients (large international groups, funds, small- and medium-sized companies), with an attention to innovative solutions, especially in business sectors where new legal practices are emerging, as in that of the Internet. This assistance includes corporate secretarial services, offering additional legal security at very competitive prices.
This special MBA feature has given rise to the emergence of a cross department team of tax and legal specialists. Specifically, this team capitalizes on experience in both audit and consulting in leveraged transactions, on both the investor and manager side as well as on the seller side. This special characteristic also explains a noteworthy positioning in real estate transactions with a strong tax aspect.
