Commercial & Corporate Law

corum Rechtsanwälte advises and represents companies, craftsmen, freelancers and tradesmen in all matters of commercial and corporate law.

Company foundation

The formation of a company varies in complexity depending on the goal of the founder. Whether a partnership (e.g. PartG, KG) or a corporation (e.g. UG, GmbH) should be founded depends largely on the requirements that the client has for the company to be founded.

We analyze with you your very individual field of activity and your business idea. Together we determine the requirements that arise for your company and address aspects such as:

Limitation of personal liability
Number of shareholders
Administrative expenses of the company
Initial investment volume
Number of employees
Tax treatment of profits

Together we will find the legally and fiscally appropriate corporate form so that your company is optimally positioned.

Ongoing corporate matters

The management of companies and sole proprietorships always raises legal issues. Foresighted legal advice facilitates a company’s everyday business and prevents risks.

We provide legal as well as tax services to companies in their day-to-day affairs, such as:

Contract design

Adaptation of model contracts
Creation of individual contracts
Managing director employment contracts
Commercial contracts
Commercial agency law
Procuration
Power of attorney and representation

Receivables Management/Collection

If the customer does not pay, we conduct effective receivables management and enforce your justified claims against the debtor. The steps range from out-of-court reminders to the initiation of dunning procedures and court proceedings to compulsory enforcement. In doing so, we always evaluate the prospects of success so that you do not incur unnecessary costs in the event of irrecoverable debts.

Dispute and shareholder dispute

Shareholder disputes are often characterized by disagreements about the management of current business, the distribution of profits and costs or the interpretation of shareholder resolutions. Due to our expertise in tax law and the tax consulting company affiliated with us, we are able to advise on the determination of the rights and obligations of the company involved from a legal and also from an economic perspective.

Our services include, among other things, the representation of individual shareholders in disputes, but also the preparation of arbitration opinions for the amicable resolution of disputes.

Company succession

The legal and tax structuring of company successions is of growing importance. With the right structuring, the tax burden of business succession can be minimized.

It is important to address the issue at an early stage. The earlier the issue of succession is addressed in family businesses, for example, the greater the likelihood of tax savings.

Contact

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact both Ms. Scheid and Mr. Ray Migge. We advise both comprehensively in all areas of corporate law.
