Our external corporate law profiles provide project-based advice to companies on all key aspects of corporate law—from drafting and negotiating shareholders’ agreements and articles of incorporation to advising on M&A transactions; (share deals, asset deals) to capital transactions, restructurings under the German Restructuring Act (UmwG), and corporate governance matters. The specific deliverables range from legally sound shareholders’ agreements and term sheets to due diligence reports, legal opinions, and applications for registration in the commercial register. For companies, this means that legal risks are identified early on and mitigated through contractual measures before they become a burden.

Specialized corporate law expertise is also required for succession planning in a corporate context or when preparing for a round of investor financing—not at some unspecified time, but precisely when a decision is due.

An external corporate law attorney advises companies on incorporation, structure, governing bodies, and shareholder relationships, and implements legally sound resolutions and contracts. Among other things, they draft and negotiate articles of incorporation, shareholder agreements, and transaction documents, and coordinate notarial procedures. The goal is to reduce risks, ensure decision-making capacity, and reliably meet registration and formal requirements.
Typical triggers include financing, M&A, changes in shareholders, restructurings, or conflicts among shareholders. You can recognize the need when resolutions are regularly postponed, documents are inconsistent, or registry/notarial matters are holding up the schedule. With our profiles for external corporate law attorneys, you can quickly establish a solid basis for decision-making and ensure accurate documentation of implementation.
Essential requirements include in-depth knowledge of corporate and group law, expertise in formalities and registry procedures, and experience with notarial processes. Also important are strong negotiation skills in SPAs and shareholder agreements, an understanding of tax and accounting interfaces, and a meticulous documentation style.

The external specialist attorney in corporate law focuses on legal form, corporate bodies, shareholder rights, resolution-making, articles of association, and transaction documents at the shareholder level. A specialist attorney in labor law, on the other hand, concentrates on employment contracts, terminations, works councils, collective bargaining law, and personnel measures. While topics may overlap in projects (e.g., management participation or managing director contracts), the logic of corporate law governs ownership, governance, and registration.
Typical deliverables include shareholder resolutions (including attachments), meeting minutes, powers of attorney, and filings with the commercial register. In addition, there are articles of association/rules of procedure, shareholder agreements, term sheets, and transaction documents such as SPAs and side letters.
