Corporate / M&A

Dynamic market conditions and new regulations are typical features of mergers and acquisitions, which are intensive multidisciplinary projects involving close collaboration between lawyers, civil-law notaries and tax advisers. A lawyer safeguards your interests when a business is acquired, whereas in the case of a merger a civil-law notary acts as your impartial adviser and as an interlocutor with your accountant or tax adviser. Whatever is involved, be it the acquisition of a business, a joint venture, the provision of advice in the case of a management buyout or investments in the form of venture capital or private equity, corporate mergers and acquisitions are multi-faceted and challenging.

Experts within the national and international mergers and acquisitions sector

M&A transactions are becoming more complex partly as a result of developments in law (among others ESG) and the increasingly international character of transactions . A successful transaction includes a thorough due diligence study, optimal negotiations concerning sale and purchase agreements (SPAs), or as the case may be: asset purchase agreements (APAs) and other transaction documentation, and makes allowances for stakeholders’ interests, post-completion commitments and corporate governance.

Dirkzwager is a one-stop shop for mergers and acquisitions, with a particular focus on the energy and healthcare sector as well as international companies (listed and unlisted). Lawyers, civil-law notaries and tax advisers work closely together with various business service providers, such as corporate finance advisers and accountants. At Dirkzwager, we pursue a personalised, pragmatic approach, thereby ensuring that the transaction procedure remains free of unnecessary complexity.
